So, this result is from what I already know and what I don't know. The moon (a few percent shy of full) is one of several I photo'd over the years and keep in a folder for composites. The flowers I shot in daylight last week. The beams are just low-opacity brushwork. Most of the glow and contrast are from a Topaz Studio 2 filter called "city flare" that I reduced to 50 percent opacity.Excellent, very well done.

Thanks Frank. My first playful pp application after Picasa was Topaz Simplify. I accidently learned last year when browsing my Topaz account that I could download Studio 2 free, as a replacement for some of my earlier purchases that were no longer available or supported.Wonderful results. Seems many here use some form of Topaz.
As you know, often a reduced opacity and/or combination with other effects such as textures, or used in a blend mode other than normal, can result in fun and varied looks outside of the pre-set.

The flowers without the moon could stand on their own and then one would just assume what the lighting could be.
I really like how you managed the lighting of the flowers.

I really like this creative image. Love the way you handled the moon light on the flower and still have the veins of the flower showing. I tried a bit more space to the left side of the leaves, but it didn't offer the same amount of tension that your original crop does. Great the way it is. Bev
