The Fractalius Filter in PS gave it a look I liked better than the original.

Wow -- gorgeous image (I just love that filter)! As for Sunday's get-together, it it I (it are we???) who thank you and Barb for all your hospitality and putting up with a couple of creaky old you-know-whats from Ohio!

Great to meet you both and we'll do it again soon! #8921892Ron McEwan September 21, 2010

Marty- The colors of the flowers against the contrasting blue of the background make them stand out so beautifully. Love the radiance of the colors, the lighting, the use of the fract filter done to perfections. Gorgeous work my friend.Val Feldman September 22, 2010
I dazzles, it glows and is a visual treat for these weary, ol' eyes of mine, Marty! Beautiful color and effects...think you're warming up to that frac filter of yours quite nicely! Good to see you amongst us again and glad you and Barb enjoyed your time with the Dynamic Duo! #8924013Candice C. Calhoun September 23, 2010
