flower of hope

[yeoldesalmon]

Before:




After:



done with GIMP 2.

How I did IT:

First I used the burn/dodge tool (shift-D) switched it to BURN and painted the the picture (with this tool) 4 times. (some pictures need only 3) Then I used the Lasso tool (F) to outline the flower. (this allows you to only paint in the outlined area) I then went back to the burn/dodge tool, switched it to dodge setting, and painted over the flower 5-6 times.

THE END

I like the before better to be honest, I love the shot as is. I think the colors and details are awsome, and I like the angle you shot it at, mind sharing what you did to pp it.

well sorry I have not gotten back lately.
I see some of you have had a shorty argument about pet peeves and my own patience.

sorry...I forgot to mention what I did. WELLLLLLLLL.............................
