Stinking Hellebores - Altered Watercolor App

Stinking Hellebores are different than the Lenton Rose Hellebores.  They bloom earlier in winter. Usually seen in woodlands for landscaping.  They got their common name because the plant can have a fetid smell.  All parts of the plant are poisonous.   The blossoms do not come in a variety of colors but have bellshaped chartreuse flowers.  The blossoms are at the top of the stalk and do not open up that much nor droop that much.  The foliage can be a light to darm green and have thin spoke type leaves.  I previous posted an image of just the foliage.  Then used an app to give a watercolor effect.  The image on the left is the original.  I did not use a tripod but would suggest you do because difficult to get really sharp image with hand holding, especially on a cloudy day.  The image on the right I tried to put a watercolor effect.   I forget which app as I was experimenting with lots of apps that give different effects as well as experimented  with PSE 15 filters.
