Come to the Cabaret!
Uploaded: August 24, 2004 04:19:52
F3.0, 1/60, late in the day. My husband thinks I'm nuts, but this just reminds me of Liza Minelli. With the sun making a natural spotlight on Liza, I wanted to emphasize her more and create the feeling of a cabaret. So, I used layers to spin the background, sharpen the center, and bring back the petals and stem at a reduced opacity.
