I brought the jpeg back into Photoshop and rotated the image so that the larger daisy is on the bottom right. I then cropped the image, which helps to minimise the background and emphasize the foreground. I haven't read the chapter on Dodging and Burning in my PSCS book but I hope to get there sometime tomorrow. Regards, Greg
