A few days ago I posted a shot of a Hibiscus that I said I gave the Orton effect to that Donna told me about. I got some nice comments about what a nice flower it was. But I said I was disappointed because it looked better on my monitor. Well I posted the WRONG SHOT!! Dah! When I post images on UHH I place them in a folder called UHH. Reasonable? The image I work on stays in it's original folder. Also reasonable.
Well when I posted that Hibiscus I used the original image. Thare was a fair amount of time between when I did the work and when I posted it - dinner and a few wines (maybe too many LoL), anyway I goofed and I'm sorry but here is the correct image. (I hope)
PS This time I clicked "store original"and it worked. Yea!

This one is gorgeous, John. I really do like it. Hey, I thought I was the only one who did things like that, lol. Great result, anyway.

Thanks mate, I'm very embarrassed, what a stupid thing to do. It's obvious I didn't even look closely at the image before I posted it - that's fair enough. But then to be disappointed when I saw it on UHH and to not investigate is just stupid. No hope for me Old Timers has got me.

LOL!!! John, don't be so hard on yourself... we all get those brain farts every now and then, but I'm glad you realized what you did and posted your processed work, even though I enjoyed the original, this is nice and dreamy and I can tell you listened to Donna and worked some magic with Orton...
...and the download works, even better!!

LOL That's OK, John. We benefit from your goof. Now we have the privilege of seeing not one but two gorgeous looks for this beautiful bloom, and I love them both!!
