About the Image(s)
This Month's offering is Petal Spirit. It started off as a Hollyhock, and on a rainy,
Sunday with nothing much else to do, I threw everything in my Photoshop
Elements and my plug-ins at it, to see that would result. I kept no record, so
can't repeat the experiment, (for which you are probably grateful). I then saw a
face at the top, and so pasted in grandson Toby's eyes and mouth to complete
the image.
This round’s discussion is now closed!

Wow ! What a most creative and compelling image. Sure like the addition of the eyes which gives it life ! Posted: 09/02/2019 13:30:10
I would never have guessed this started off as a pic of a hollyhock.It looks a little like a waterfall. Great idea to add the eyes and mouth. Posted: 09/10/2019 14:46:02
Amazing what you have created and the eyes make it compelling. I wonder about blurring the eyes so they are hazy, and how it could change the mood of the image. Posted: 09/16/2019 00:31:31

This is creepy good, Mike. The eyes and mouth bring this to life, like a sci-fi movie where the computer gives itself facial features to make the humans it "serves" feel more comfortable. I hope this doesn't show up in my dreams tonight!!! d;¬{D Posted: 09/21/2019 11:37:56
