Bud's Promise

Uploaded: March 24, 2006

Description

Taken in window light with a reflector, Provia 100, Sigma 105mm macro lens; slide scanned in Nikon Coolscan V; a bit of nik's Brilliance and Warmth filter; slightly sharpened in PS 7.0. This has been resubmitted with the background color brightened and lighting effects added to lower left with layers in PS 7.0 in the hopes of improving a personal favorite.

Judith, I looked at your original submission and I do think this result is better. Lightning the background and showing a source of light in the lower left makes for a more interesting composition. I love the water drops on the bud. #414575
