Very pretty in colors WOW

Kathleen K. Parker June 02, 2005

Love it, Terry! Beautiful hues! I know hydrangeas are pink or blue depending on the soil content (is it iron?). Will this one change in relation to the soil you plant it in? Whenever I get new flowers, I try to remember to photograph them while they are still alive.

Terry L. Ellis June 02, 2005

Thank you, Kerby and kk! You gals are great! kk, my hubby knows how to keep them beautiful, I just shoot them. He said it has to do with the mineral content of the soil and adding aluminum something. Good thing to shoot while they're alive, kk. LOL #1424152

Terry L. Ellis June 03, 2005

Oh my goodness! Thank you Linda, Darren, Sanjay, Mary, Souha and Tammy. You've really made my day. The only effect is using a slight vignette blur around the edge and and increased saturation and contrast and of course sharpening. I also set white balance to cloudy since we are under June gloom here. Thanks, again, everyone! #1426050

Marsha S. Smith June 03, 2005

This is beautiful - such gorgeous detail. The color of some is determined by the Ph of the soil - acid soil makes one color and alkaline soil makes the other. Supposedly you can put epsom salts around a pink flowering plant and it will turn blue.
Sorry I don't know which is which though! #1428374

Terry L. Ellis June 03, 2005

Thank you so much, Marsha! I didn't hear about using epson salts before. Thanks! #1428441
