I used the distort, polar coordinates filter to generate the reeds, colorized with gradients and added the butterflies.
Thank you, Shoofly-stock, and Emma Cox

Drop shadows don't work...what would they be cast on if the butterflies are flying among reeds?

author says:

But they aren't in the image, they are on the image. If I wanted them in the reeds I would use blending and masking. I have a picture like this at home, a printed image on a cloth with silk applications.

nicely done. I do think it would be nice if the butterflies where made out of the metal to. I agree with CMYK46 with the cast shawdows.

Very nice work...very optimistic creations...gl author.

author says:

Again, it wasn't my intention to have the butterflies "in" the image. In this case I would have used a different blend mode. I wanted them "on top" of the image.

I got your intention Author, your butterflies are lodged ON the picture you created with metal beams. Even so you should work on the shadows since the butterflies bodies are on the picture, but their wings are in the air. Nice work anyway

author says:

sob... no, you don't get it.... sob.... the wings are supposed to be in the air... silky butterflies sitting on a flat printed image....

Very Pretty design. How did those butterflies ever get in the window to land on that wall hanging? I get what you were going for. Nice Job and good luck.

avatar RayTedwell

I get it too, I thought the difference in colour, texture etc was enough to show that they werent part of the image. Nice work
