An image I took quite a while ago now - poppies in our back garden, with texture added for effect.

Thank you for all your wonderful comments on my recent uploads, all very much appreciated.

I am going against the flow a bit, Carol, as, whilst I like your ability to apply texturing to your shots, I find this texturing tending to overpower the flowers: something a bit more delicately applied and possibly in a different colour, possibly using the greens ,I'd find more appealing.
Sorry about that.
Ronnie.

I think the texturing works with the windblown poppies
which wouldn't be sharp.
In the thumbnail I thought 'arty'.
I like Arty!

Poppies are in my top ten of flowers so I have to like this one.

poppies are so delicate perhaps the texturing is a tad strong but none the less a fine capture WinkGrin

Seems to be a few poppy uploads appearing on here, but I'm not complaining, they are my favourite flower! Wink And this is a super capture and presentation, Carol Smile

After looking again at this image I agree with your comment Graham, I may have to rework this at some stage!
