Pick A Rose

Pick A Rose

Uploaded: September 12, 2004 03:48:39

Description

Still life shot of a rose on my husbands guitar. I took the reflective paper that the rose was wrapped in and slid it between the strings and the guitar. Thought it made an interesting background. Adjusted levels and added watercolor and dreamy effect then faded both out some.
