About the Image(s)
This is unfinished. I think it needs a fallen flower on the table and slight color corrections. I wanted to share it because of some tricks in Mirror Lab. One day I'll move on to other apps, but thanks to Carl's sharing of Mirror Lab, I'm forever finding neat things to do with it. If you haven't tried it, it's fun!
These are weeds to most people, but they are actually tiny flowers of edible herbs called Daisy Fleabane-- I haven’t eaten them!
After Snapseed, I used Mirror Lab's preset Flash to give flowers a slight dimension. With fingers, you pinch the image to expand or reduce the amount of Flash. It can be used for creating amazing 3D looks. I also liked the resulting textures in the background as old plaster or stucco. The whole piece reminds me of a tile. The flower centers were edited with Distortion/Whirls. I pinched a whirl to make it tiny and dragged it over the flower center, set it, then chose repeat and did the same for each center. I wasn't sure about the repeat selection, but it offers alot of creativity.

You are on the right track with your idea to let a flower fall onto the table. I'd like to see that done.   Posted: 05/27/2020 13:39:24
