Freeshia Onstage

Uploaded: June 23, 2005

Description

Focal 8 mm, F/5, 1/250sec., ISO-80, direct sunlight, hand held. Used PS6 lighting effects, sharpen edge, adj. levels, and saturation. I held a red manila folder behind the flowers. I'm only playing with Photoshop and really haven't learned how to use it properly.

Taken 6/23/05 at 2:44 PM on the ledge of my hotel room window; London, England.

Please Critique! I really want to know how to improve! Thank you!
