 I used a few different layers of blurred and brightened duplicates and goofed around with their transparency until I ended up with this.  It looks a more like a painting than a photograph now I think.  Do you think this is taking Digital photography editing too far?  Strangely enough, the only spot editing I did was to leave some regions (the flowers) less blurred than the green background.
 
 
   Here's the original for comparison.

		| | Digital art or whatever, I think it's beautiful. Did you try a longer aspect like 8x10? |

		| | Image is a bit soft for my taste, almost bordering on "out of focus" or being blurry. Nice job with the colors though.

		| | Yes, I would consider this digital art, but I also don't think there's anything wrong with it. In fact, I really like the outcome, and I'm even more impressed with it after seeing the original.  Great work :)

		| | If you apply "paint daubs" filter to this in Photoshop, you would HAVE a beautiful painting. :)  I like it.
