Description

It's a summer afternoon and the purple coneflowers are waving in the breeze. The bees are buzzing and enjoying the nectar.
Original image of coneflowers taken in my garden in Southern Oregon. Image processed in Nik Color Efex Pro. A texture was added to produce distance for the back flowers. The texture was removed from the front flowers to make them pop. I then processed the image in Topaz Impression.
Texture by French Kiss
