Mysterious Bouquet

I photographed this unknown bunch of flowers over five years ago. I

rejected the photograph because the flowers where on the wane and

contained areas of "rust" on the edges of the pedals and even among

the inner pedals. I did like the color combinations, yellow, purple

and white, but the flowers themselves had a rough textures which

again, I thought was distracting and "hard looking."

Today, I took another look and thought I would see what I

could do with the help of Photoshop

Original Raw

Pixel Bender version Oil Paint

The best in the row I would say! Seven! I have a sunflower with "regulated" background today, ha!

Best regards Leo!
