Mandarin Orange Monday

This is a picture I took of my neighbor's Lupine.  They are a gorgeous flower in their own right, but I had to see how they would look as an orange flower ...

All of my edits are in Photo Shop Elements

I used mostly filters that would effect the background then used the mask brush to bring the flowers back out as the main focus.  You can't go too wrong when you are working with Mother Natures beauty ...

Happy MOM Everyone!
