Your concept is great. But the composite feels unbalanced both in brightness between the 5 frames and in color. (I wish the first E was complete but clouds are not all that cooperative!) I duped part of the cloud image to complete the E and then converted to B&W as a possible variation. |

Great ideas at work here. I agree with Georgianne that the white dress should be toned down; but your colors work for me. |

You remind me of how different blending modes can create neat results. I agree with Helen that overall the image feels too busy. Maybe a strong centered vignette could tame that but keep the kaleidoscope effect. (Amazing that so many of us this month are into flowers; a visceral wish for spring to arrive?) Forgive the intrusion, but I tried to see if some twirl could enhance the kaleidoscope effect. A duplicate layer, strongly vignetted, twirled 180 deg, was put into Difference mode with a mask to keep the main flower; and that layer duped in Hard Light mode; then a crop and tweaks in LR. |

Actually, the same texture was used everywhere. I did darken up the upper right corner to keep the focus on the flower. |

Well done. The texture of the bud and leaves comes through very nicely. I might have kept a bit more of the right side of your original, vignetted though, so that the red bud is not quite so centered. |

Nicely done. Merging her with the clouds works well. The only change I'd suggest is to keep more of her forehead just above her left eye; the cloud there doesn't seem quite right. |
