A Different Take on Spring Blooms
Abraham Lincoln said, "All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle and plant a flower wherever the flower would grow in thought and mind."
Claude Monet said, "I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers."
I love flowers and they lend themselves so well to Special Effects!
Our first image is a unique way to create a bouquet. Dora Slover created this image, and it is actually one photo with special effects added so it looks like several images.

Ahhh, tulips! Filters can create wonderful special effects. They can make photographs look like paintings, and that is exactly what Betty Malone did in the next photo with her lovely tulips.

I will be the gladdest thing under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.
And not pick one.
- Edna St. Vincent Millay
Special thanks to Dora Slover and Betty Malone for their contributions to our blog.
