Clematis

From an "expedition" around my garden with the macro lens, I should put it on the camera a bit more often!

Processed with flypaper Textures, there's a before after and recipe on the blog

    Beautiful macro and texture. Looks like the clematis blossom is printed on cloth.

    what a lovely image Jill...super texture...I am going to do a search on my pc for your stuff..I don't understand why the file is not on my desktop or in my CS 3 files either..I am wondering if I had gotten them before I got this new pc and then didn't save them onto my external drive like I did the other stuff i have..but I am also positive that I did...just must be misfiled somewhere .. a mystery...!

    Stunning texture work and lovely mood and composition. I love the way the clematis flowers on and on and was one of the first to welcome spring.

    I adore the softness in this image Jill. The very beautiful pastel tones, the textures you added and the sharp details on the stamens contribute to making it a true jewel :-)
