Wild Dogwood

FAF-wild-dogwoods_edited

We have a wild dogwood tree in our yard, and it always blooms after our "store bought" ones. It has pretty white flowers, and I enhanced them this week for Flower Art Friday. I added a subtle pattern to them using a reverse layer mask, and also added a crackle texture to make the image look more painterly. I also put it into Radlab and used several filters until I liked how it looked. Click on the button below to visit Leanne's blog and see more photos!
