Wow, it’s taken most of my lunch break to catchup with you all and I don’t regret it at all haha :)

Hope the night/day is going well for you all and no doubt about FEAR... it’s what the enemy wants us to think but scriptures tell us that God had NOT given us the spirit of fear.... but of power, love and soundmind! Amen!

So just know that fear is NOT a part of our spiritual genetics, fear was long relinquished when our Saviour Jesus Christ died on the cross for you and I!! :)

PRAISE GOD!!! Okay, just popping in to say this haha and will catchup with you lovelies soon :) xox

Oh, and as per usual, after posting it, and gazing at it on the board, I see
where improvements can be made, and so I made some minor changes :D

Being creative entails having a critical eye... and I am also of the opinion that the biggest room in the world is the one for improvement. Of course there does come a time to leave well enough alone, and I do get there occasionally haha :D Okay, the butterflies looked blurry, and poor Deade's eyes, I must be considerate of them also, and Jaume, and Willie if he is looking in, and even my own, so here again with more changes... ta da!



See? The butterflies are not blurry any more :)

It is also a form of meditation for me... or is that medication, hmmm, is there a difference?

You're right! I see your point.....you're not critical at all - you're being thoughtful of others with your art! You're very sweet! Great job, Magenta! :)

Even the angel looks sharper, I am happy about that also :)

Every image needs sharpening after completion, but just using the sharp filter once is not enough, though twice is too much, so I have started playing around with another filter, called unsharp, sounds weird I know but it does actually sharpen, and you get to choose how much. I will have to write down my optimum results so I can use the same parameters again :D

Oh wow, I just noticed that when someone quotes an image it is not as sharp :eek::eek::eek:

I am on a learning curve here LOL :D

Almost ready for chowing down on :)

But I can't smell them, yet. Usually by the time you
can smell the food it is just about ready to eat :D
