Hi All while at the local botanical garden, in the tropical pools, I came across this lovely pool flower in a deep and moody setting, I was beguiled. Please enjoy and thanks for looking. RBorud
Magical. Stunning technique. Fine, disciplined creativity.
Gorgeous! The reflection is just perfect.
Amazing and captivating PP work - and if you would like to share some of your techniques, I wouldn't mind...!

Tommy,
There are a number of filters that will create this effect: Redfields's Fractalius, Topaz Glow, and AKVIS Neon (among others). Each one of these programs has numerous presets you can experiment with, and controls to change the Opacity so that it blends well with your original image. It is usually best to create a Duplicate Layer of your subject, apply one of those filters to the second image, then save the layer. Later, if need be, you can again change the opacity level of the second layer, or create Masks that will allow you to apply the changes to only selected areas of your original.
