Crested Dwarf Iris from our local gardens.  Used Liquify, NIK analog efex, and a mixer brush to soften the background.  Also converted the image to a square aspect.

Aaah- lovely. So nice to see your work here again. Love the soft blur that still retains the subject matter. Beautiful colors -the square crop works well here too. Makes me think of spring...and perhaps a rainy wash. :)

Beautiful soft colors and lighting. The identifiable petal of the Iris grounds the image while the blurred surroundings provide a feeling of upward movement. Lovely!

Iris, or exotic chorus line dancers? I think they're doing the can-can with supple high kicks and movement!

Beautiful colour palette and dreamy lines in this lovely artwork Jackie.  You never disappoint.   8)

Your effects give a nice movement to it.
