Artist's Comments

This is a stitch taken at the yuanmingyuan (Old Summer Palace) in Beijing. The Palace is amazing and breathtaking! They have a number of lakes that are covered with lotus, to the point that you can't see the water. Luckily it had rained the previous day, and the sky was blue. Which, if anyone has been to Beijing, knows that it almost always is a smoggy gray. If you look closely, you will notice that the sky starts to turn gray/white at the far right of the photo, which was the direction towards the city.

Composed of 7 photographs taken with a Sony Cyber-Shot 12.1 Mega Pixel Camera. With editing using Photoshop CS2.

I really dislike the effect that was put over that picture :/

When I left it by itself, it seemed to get a bit jumbled. To me it seemed rather bland, and confusing to look at a lot of lotus leaves. I felt that this gave it a feeling as if it were painted, and made it a bit more interesting. I appreciate your comment!

Prove to me this line does not exist.

I have to agree with harvest. Maybe play with contrast/levels or something to differentiate the leaves and the shadows. The picture looks like it could be amazing.
