Butterfly Flower IIby $ewm

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Animals & Plants

This is the second in a series of 10 images that I am creating for my senior project. The series is called "Butterfly Flowers". Not sure of the exact species of this flower but I normally refer to it as a "Tiger Lily" For this one I used the striping pattern of the The Magnificent Owl Butterfly Caligo atreus which is native to Costa Rica.

Please view the Detail Image

**updated** I made the image a touch lighter

The Process:
Flowers taken in my studio with my 40D+100mm macro and strobe lighting with a black fabric background.

The RAW files are adjusted and converted to jpg.

The butterflies were taken in RAW as well at the Butterfly House in Whitehouse Ohio with the 300D+100 mm macro and 500D filter

The flowers and butterflies are then combined in Photoshop.

The final images will be printed on dA canvas with "Butterfly I" as a 16 by 20 and the rest as 11 by 14.

Wonderful flower. The colours are incredible and the pattern work is well suited. Very Exotic in appearance.

Anti-abortionists and anti-homosexual marriage advocates don’t need laws preventing them from participating in either, so the only reason they’d vote for them is if they believe they have the right to control the lives of other people.

~WraithGod Oct 24, 2007

Oooh, the texture, yes. ^___^ The previous one I saw had more of the shapes of the butterflies' wings and I was looking for that again.

Killer. Mother. Whatever.

$ewm Oct 25, 2007 Hobbyist Photographer

Ah well the previous had the shape of butterfly wings because they are actually shaped that way

[link]
Each flower will be different according to shape and color only the main one Butterfly Flower I will be shaped like real butterflies.

April's Challenge: Stalk a $taffer or CV Results

*Kneeling-Glory May 15, 2012 67 comments

In April, we asked group members to stalk a CV or $taff member to help dispel the myth that these people are too important for everyday deviants to get to know. In fact, many of them produce great art and have fun personalities just like you and me! Here's what we found out:Staffers:iconmoo nbeam1...
