i really like this effect, have you tried using the magic wand tool in photoshop to select bits you dont want the treatment to be added on? did it work?

Me too I really like this, very unusual and striking.

Interesting effect i have never heard of Fractalius/

Hi Lisa. I like the composition and soft colouring of this shot and love the effect you've used. It gives it a wonderful soft feathery feel. Well done

Good use of the fractalius filter. Genese has a good idea, selective filtering.

Works really well on the petals but not so much on the stem. How did the original look before the old fractal treatment?

the original was very tired and in desperate need of a bit of sparkle!!

Very impressive Lisa. I like it. Never heard of this effect before. Will have to give it a go too.

Hi Lisa, we meet again. This is excellent PS work. Impressive but a little bit too tight. Would like to see slightly more space. But you certainly do a good job after seeing the original photo.
