Hi Kev ...

Kev, as always very nice. How did you keep the flower in focus? Place on top after you did orb?

Wendy,
Thanks, thought you might like it.

Val,
glad you like it.
if you mean the flowers in the orbs, here's what I did.

Pick a photo, then you can crop it square or leave it the shape it is.
Apply Wendy's orb action.
Then go Image - Rotate - flip layer vertically.
Repeat the orb action
Then I just played with the levels for each orb to brighten the flowers just a touch.
Hope you can understand my poor explanation.
If you you have any queries, please ask and I'll try to help.
Kev:)

Thx Kev, got to try these Orb's, but alas I hear their addicting and I'm already addicted to this forum. Oh well, whats one more addiction (orb's, forum, wine,)

[kevq]

Val,
we are all addicts, without elements, the forum and lots of strong coffee, where would we be. Oh, I forgot the wine!
Kev.:)

[Wendy]

Kev ...

Make that lots of wine :)

Oh, I'm afraid my selections would REALLY be bad if I were to add in the wine. :)

Kay,
The selections aren't too bad - it's the focus I have trouble with! :p :D :D

[kevq]

Nancy,
:D :D ,
so for the next version of elements we want auto select and for our cameras auto focus.
Kev.

You got it Kev! Sit back click a button and sip away while it magically transforms! :D

[kevq]

Nancy,
I'll drink to that!
