Description

I took this shot yesterday while CJ and I were out fishing. I don’t know how it ended up looking so neon/glow”y”. I took a couple of the same flower and they all came out this color. It downloaded a little underexposed so I brightened it and increased the contrast a little. Thanks to Bobbie Davis for helping me choose the one to enter today!

Have a great Monday (if that is even possible ;) )!

Nice picture Tammy. Probably the change in colour is due to the underexposure and increase in contrast. Sometimes fiddling with colours, may result in interesting and unexpected effect. Well done! #246644

Gorgeous shot Tammy! I love how the muted tones of the background pull the color from the center of the flower to make it pop! Really pretty ...
