Flowers and Texture Tuesday

These are some flowers around the campground. The first one is Mountain Laurel the state flower of Pennsylvania.



I am joining Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday. I used the Mayzee, 75% overlay, desaturated, turned the hue blue, used a soft brush to erase over main flowers. I use Corel Paintshop Pro II.
