The above is Lady Bird Johnson's Wild Flower Center in Austin Tx.
ACR, T simplify Buz, with added color toning.
Also, I selected all the white highlights & used content aware fill to tone down overly bright areas.
Buzsim sure makes a difference in a photo which has many areas of reflected light, such as sun light bouncing off leaves, etc.

I finally got inspired enough to do something creative. It's a long way from Monday but that's OK.

With our lack of rain the flower beds did little or nothing for us this year. Potted plants, however, were well watered and look as good as ever. My wife asked me to photograph this hanging basket for her:

Lake several others this week, I tweaked a bit with Topaz. I used Topaz Adjust, Brilliant Warm in the Classic Collection and added a vignette. I finished it off with the Faux Mat I described some months ago in the tutorial section.

Rusty i usually just start with basic circle or square shapes and mold them to what i want. A lot of textures,patterns, burning and dodging. Of course my idea was for a gazebo and i changed in mid stream because it looked more like a mushroom so i just followed that through.
