Dogwood
(04.13.05)

The Dogwood trees in bloom around my house are just beautiful...I love this time of year. Unfortunately it was a tad too breezy to get a crisp focus. I thought I would play around with a few actions I had stumbled upon. This is done using a cool Photoshop Sketch action developed by Alex Glassman, tweaked of course. Click to DownLoad

Yes, watch the cholesterol LC...:>) Lovely effect here.

Interesting image. The action (which I downloaded with several others, thank you! )
renders this flower almost a wooden appearance. That's maybe appropriate because it is after all a dogWOOD ! We have one in our backyard waiting to bloom. The flower - trivia department here - is the floral symbol for British Columbia.

Neat effect. I'll check it out. Have you tried using the flash to get a higher shutter speed on windy days. I know here it is windy from March until July so you have to adapt. Now, back to the eggshell series. :)

I love this. When I was in Florida the pink dogwood was blooming all along the freeway. Just beautiful.
