Originally i wasn't going to post this. I thought it looked to much like the others and that dragonflies was better than it. Well, dragonflies is better, but this is nice. It has it's own unique feel to it, and the image import was pretty awesome.
After importing the image i added texture to the image itself using a mask of the image trap which was awesome. I also used localized lighting through shadows, and masked angle to trap. Then i created global lighting using the angle to trap as well but with a orbit trap, point as a mask. To add lighting/shading below the flowers and where the mask didn't cover, i used the trap center effect with a rose trap. It turned out pretty good. 190 layers. I learned a few things from it. I also learned a new outside which i have never used before. I think i'm done with the same old same old. I want to try new things, but it's hard for me to break my molds. So, i hope the aposhack can help me break my mold.

thank you *Velvet--Glove for helping me with the image traps.

Now compare this one to this: and then to I think there is improvement made in this. I just need to get back into making stuff that is visionary. This is just the same old same old for me.

My next few is going to be using a new outside i have learned. I hope you guys like them.
