It looks like the center photo was substantially improved by your photo manipulation. Love the doodled edges you've used here as well as the yellow sunrays to mimic the lighting in the photo. Thanks for playing along in this month's challenge.

Great layout, Jena! I agree with Beth about how you've improved your photo. I like the desaturated composition with pops of color....really lovely!

Love how you've used the technique on your page! Your photo series looks so good against the monochromatic backdrop!

gorgeous page and a great way to use the technique
