Nice! I hope you will excuse my limited French (went to Nice often, so please excuse that, I think the Russians named it' Bit weird, Its Nikolse, and then it becomes Nice. I do love and have interests in Nice, but way above my budget apart from my connections (legal)

Tried a few different flags and techniques - then thought I'd better bite the bullet and go for the good old Union Jack.
As ever a good Challenge and one to learn from.

Very nice work Deborah! I think you worked hard on that? and/or just v smart? I maybe need to fix some bits in my Scotish flag?

Gerand! Nice to see the Dutch flag (I know some very good Dutch guys, and gave me some Dutch language I can not repeat

Never really understood the clogs. Hurt me. Respect though out of my ignorance.

Loving All your other flags too.

Well Cl&m&nt....

I began by making a selection of what I thought the central cross shape would look like with the lassoo tool ... not worrying too much if I overlapped into the sky area
I copied that selection of the flag onto a different layer and then adjusted the hue in : Image - adjust - hue/saturation -
Then did the same for all the other shapes in the flag design.

Lastly I merged all the adjusted layers together and trimmed the edges where I had gone into the sky area using the original flag as a guide.

Et voila !!



By the way thank you Josephine.
