Gene,

I've made another version (better?).

http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/album150/White_Lily_MG_1089-Edit-2.jpg.html

I think a touch lighter might be in order on this one - BTW, the 
sequence is totally different.

What I'm trying to do is find the best way to get the flower out of a 
dingy (and spotty) grey background without too much work with Magic 
Wands, Lassoos and the like.

Cheers
Douglas
