Soft and Tender

Get-Pushed-71 Challenge from Suse @Susale to capture something that is "soft and tender or makes the viewer feel so."

In the midst of a big holiday and travel week, I couldn't channel Joey DMuli or Arefin so I had to do my best to fulfill a true get-pushed in that "soft and tender" is not my usual style.

This was taken on a hike at the top of the highest peak in Macau. Two of the university's grad students pointed out this single flower along our hike. I had fun trying out various processing tricks (combining so many I can't recall them all but I think ultimately layered the antique setting on silver efex pro) to make a representational photo appear more soft and tender. Good thing to do when jet-lagged and wide awake at 3:30 am.
@susale I had fun trying out this challenge! Sorry I didn't have time to do more, but now it has me thinking about future things I want to try.

Yes it's tender and soft and it makes me feel so too, well done! I'm glad you had fun too! Great processing, I really like that misty mood, too bad you can't remember how you did. I'm little late uploading myself cos of the party weekend.
