Description

Finalist
12/13/05
Digital Darkroom

This was a photo of a single sunflower. I copied/pasted and rotated the flower a couple of times to create a mirror image of sorts. The background is an image of prairie grasses modified in PS CS with the flood filter added as a final touch.

Beautifully pressented---great colors & very efective image. What is a flood filter in PS--where can it be found? #2181428

Sharon Day December 13, 2005

Thanks, Margie and Gerald! The flood filter is a plugin for Photoshop by Flaming Pear. Here's a link to Flaming Pear. You can try it out for a limited time before purchasing it.
