Nicely done, Bunny. :-) Very pretty flower and lots of detail captured! #9800083Susan K. Snow November 15, 2011
Thank you, Michele. #9806875Nikki McDonald November 18, 2011
Looks as if it was skipped for an EP but I think it looks very nice. Bet it would pick one up if you resubbed sometime :) #9816304Susan K. Snow November 18, 2011
I'll keep my eyes open for a better sky, that adds to the composition and overall color, as well as a lighter foreground. This was captured in a nursery and the background and foreground was nothing to write home about, but the flower itself had potential. When one looks at the raw image, it was zilch. But, I really pulled out the color with techniques learned from Lewis Kemper.I appreciate all your advice, Nikki. I'll try again another time. #9816428
