This is a stunning composition that is well balanced and framed nicely. The oil painting filter is very effective in softening the overall look of the image. Very nice piece!

I love the filter here, the vignettes works wonderfully, and the flower itself is absolutely stunning! A clear, crisp image with lovely lines and subtle color changes!

Once again, beautiful. I wish I knew how to do all the things you do with a picture. Especially the background layers. Everything looks perfectly done. The lighting is great, focus great, composition great. Sorry for being so boring.

Now this is the way to work with layers that I need to learn. Very well edited, a soft and pleasing shot, focused and framed. Good work.

This is an awesome image.

You have the knack of turning a photo into a work of art.

I love the composition, it is so graceful.

The use of light is outstanding.

This image should be hung in an art museum.

Hats off! You are amazing.

A classic avmurray creation. Makes the most out of all your mixed media talents for a stunning result. Elegant and delicately toned. All ready to be a greeting card or a wonderful piece of framed art.
