    I think this is a fun experiment, and I like how the orange pops out of the pixelized areas. Plus you are learning a piece of software and practicing forcing the viewer’s eye to go where you want it to go. 🙂

      Thank you, I am not very familiar with these changes – don’t have photoshop or any of those programs. Picmonkey is exciting to use!

    Personally not a fan of the pixelate effect, partly cos the squares are so big, a smaller more mosaic effect could be nice.

      Moenie nog praat nie. Ek is natuurlik nie rerig mal oor al die veranderinge aan n foto nie.

    I like the hint of radiance around the orange and the pixelation is an interesting effect, though not one that really appeals. It reminds me a little too much of a strange sight disorder…
