Hi Lonnie, Carla, and Karen, thanks for your great comments!!!! Lonnie, in answer to your question, the reflection portion in the lower part of the image is the (Flood filter) from Flaming Pear. The glowing color surrounding the egg was created by applying the (Dreamy filter ) from Virtual Photographer, to the nearly B&W original. Then the color was selected and a gradient map was layered in. Hope this is not to confusing. #4908387Linda Blair October 11, 2007
Cool and creative...great work, Duane!!!! ☺ #4912677Mitch Spence October 11, 2007
Duane, this is a great use of the flood filter, to produce a fantasy image such as this. The glowing colors you achieved are striking and effective. Nice work! #4912819Elizabeth J. Bernier October 11, 2007
