Description

More tulips. Aftet uploading 3 full galleries of these sensual beauties it's time to move on. Tomorrow we move on to a visit with the Ryans, followed by a search for some of those rocks Cleveland talks about, and on up to the US side of Niagara Falls.

This one was done by adding a fractalius filter in CS5--original in comments. The background was the gold side of the reflector.

Beautiful image, great treatment; the Frac filter is one of my favorites, but don't use it much anymore since I traded my PC in for a Mac. #9354429

I got to tell you my friend. I think that both pictures are so beautiful in their own way and that each one is a deffinite winner. The original has an elegant look and I just love how you decided to see what you could do with it and the way you really jazzed it up. What dazzling colors and glow you added to the picture. You have a real great day my friend, take care. #9358919
