The Carnation Revolution (April 25th)
In spite of being very easy to do, this is an image that i had to do, cos i wanted to celebrate the April 25th, wich is a very important day here in
Portugal, cos it was when dictatorship gave place to democracy!!
It was a pacific revolution, with no casualties, but a lot of carnations! and so it has been called The Carnation Revolution !!
well, enough of talking, here's the image:

Comments and Critics please!!

Really nice image. But I rather see a Bluish Background than black and grey.
Perhaps more details in the carnation.

really nice work PM i am not sure about background color idea but as
far as i know its your style and trademark, so let it be. maybe you could have a bit less cloud filtering and the flower might be more bright..its
edges are too dark

thanks a lot ray and jusu for the comments!!
Ray - yes, and it is a bit blue, but i didnt want to exagerate, cos blue color has nothin to do with the carnation revolution... and ye it could have
more details, but u know, this one is really great being from me... i dont like flowers..
jusu - i tried to make an environment of clouds and shadows, to contrast with the white and freedom coming out from the carnation... perhaps ive
exagerated...mmm...but just a bit..hehe...
thx!
