WendyJC replied
thank you Kymie :o)
it was a good shot!
clarkey
Wow, this is fantastic, Wendy, it just doesn’t get any better than this. The only thing I would have done differently would have been to leave a wee bit more space on the sides – just my opinion.
WendyJC replied
hiya Jan … one day i’ll learn how to expand the edges …LOL
thank you xoxo
WendyJC replied
took your advice and thought all day about how to frame it larger … “more space” ...

Wow, that’s fabulous, Wendy; imo, that little extra space just makes it look better, not so “crowded.
WendyJC replied

FlowersEtc
Great job
WendyJC replied
thank you FlowersEtc …
i am currently working on another and will try your method with it!!
thank you!!!!
FlowersEtc
This is beautiful and you could take it one step futher in photoshop.
Make a copy to play with and use smudge with a very thin line from left to right or right to left, you will be dragging the colors in a line and it will make it like water.
Amanda Emblow
Wow ! what a great capture and reflection :)
WendyJC replied
thank you Amanda!!

James Deypalan
Another awesome capture Wendy! with regards to your question from one of your reply, if the white is too bright? I think its just right, because you can still see some details on your whites. Not blown out. Except the white near the head which is tolerable..Well done!
