Description
I shot these purple New England Asters at the Wild Gardens of Acadia, in Acadia National Park, last fall. The wind was blowing and the flower petals, especially on the center flower, were going in all directions creating a fittingly wild scene in the Wild Gardens.
Processed with On1 Effects 2017, painted with Topaz Impression 2, and finished with a texture from Jai Johnson.
Nikon D810 with Nikon105mm micro lens.
I am so honored to have won 1st Place in the Flowers - Mix Your Media contest. Thank you so much to all who voted for my image, and to group administrator Brooks Garten Hauschild.
