I think I prefer it without the filter.I seem to think my weary old eyes see more contrast and detail in the stamen!Both are Beaueutiful! #694878

Allan L. Whitehead August 08, 2004

Both are marvelous, but I think I prefer the filtered one, Nobi. The photograph(s) is/are wonderful. Very well done, my friend - Allan #694904

Debra Booth August 08, 2004

Oh, how to decide? They are both so beautiful! I love the detail in the unfiltered one and the soft blending of the colors in the filtered one! #694933

Hi Nobi!Its So Hard To Choose Both Look Great Has The Filter Got A Fade Option?If So It Would Be Intresting To Se A 50 Precent Fade:-) #695083

Leave it to you Nobi to try and pick our brains :-) I love the neat image filter and use it all the time but I have to say that the unfiltered one looks better to me because of the excellent details you caught! Love composition and colors to boot! #695085

Can't decide! The colors and comp are fantastic! #695097

I agree with everyone else... I love both!! NeatImage is good for so many things. I never would've thought to use it on a flower pic! Great work.

Another really well done flower shot, Nobi. I like the way you composed it and the colors are GREAT. In this case I prefer the non filtered one as it shows all the detail and I'm not noticing any grain/noise even without it. #734755
