An old rose

This week someone else were supposed to pic a picture that we could work on at Bildverkstaden. I had my younger kids to choose.

They took this picture which was shot yesterday when we visited there grandparents. An old rose in a bouquet. As always I used PhotoScape.

I started by cutting and then I made it a little bit sharper and made it a little bit more coulorful by using the "Light, Colour (Ljus, Färg)-button"

After that several pictures were made. Boored when the kids make me get up at five in the morning. ;)

At this first picture I just made a white vignettering by using Vignettering in Philtre and put my name on it.

Then I tried to use a function I haven't used earlier. Linjär övertoning(I'm sorry, but I don't know what it's called in english) in Philtre as well. I used it four times to make it go around the flower with pink.

After that I used picture number one and opened Light, colour again and changed the nuance, made it purple and blue. =)

In this last picture, which is my favourite I used number one and then I used Smart suddighet och Brusreducering in Philtre several times. Made it look like a painting!

This flower is also my contribution for Today's Flowers!
