Experimenting (never-ending, isn’t it?!) joyfully, like a child discovering more stuff a toy can do, as I rework the photos of my white roses, thanks to Bonnie at Pixel Dust Photo Art… for PAF this week:

This is abstraction reached using Bonnie’s off_kilter texture… ( 1st. layer(s) difference @100% x2, then saturation @100%)… Lovely and vivid, isn’t it? Yum!

Another photo, using chinks_of_light this time… Blend modes – hue x2 @100%; hard mix @47%; altered the colour/balance; used pin light @100% and posterized edges!) Voila!

Bonnie’s approach, like that of Nancy Donaldson, is so playful and adventurous, I just love it! She also has some really cool stuff to photograph in her garden… 😉

Join in the fun by following my links above. 🙂

    What wonderful effects! I know exactly what you mean about feeling like a child who is discovering more stuff a toy can do…it’s so true when playing with effects in PSE. 🙂

  6. I really like the touch of grunge or should be say grain to the images, you have created great images with the texture. Cheers

  12. Hi Rosie, been browsing through your blog and Flickr, great work. I think I went a little on the wild side for PAF, the abstract ran away. Cheers
