Apricots (Posterized Photo)

Yesterday I posted my photo of apricots, taken during a recent Whole Foods run. I have been wondering how the photo would look posterized, so tonight I opened the image in Painter. I started by adjusting the brightness and contrast, which also resulted in better color. Then I posterized the image, using trial and error to get the right amount of posterizing effect. The posterizing makes the apricots look soft and fuzzy, like, well, like apricots! Then I started cropping until I was happy with the composition. And here it is.
