Vicky, I do not know what basic editing program you have but you are doing very well. If your monitor is not calibrated I do not recommend that you try what I just suggested in regard to color correction. The reason why I say that is because without a good calibration you do not really know how those colors will be seen in a monitor that does have calibration. If you print at home or commercially you will never have an exact duplicate of colors as you see them in your monitor. Calibration is a must.
Photoshop Elements is a good start and Lightroom is very good although a little bit more complicated.
As I said, for printing and to look at the real colors of what you captured a calibrated monitor is a must.

Many thanks for all of the helpful suggestions William. I'm still a little afraid of some of the computer applications that take more complex sequences than using the on/off switch or moving the mouse. I'll have to read up on calibration because you can be sure I've never done it. I print at home and have been happy with the results, but maybe they're not perfect. :-(

Artistically composed,Vicki. Love the white rose, so perfect symbolizing purity and innocence. Good work and colors are nicely saturated.

We got another fairly good dousing today. When it stopped, I ran to get my camera and find out whether there were any droplets left on the flowers. The light was dim and a bit moody.


Lovely set Vicki...the raindrops just adding to the beauty!

I looked at the same flowers on subsequent days I didn't find them nearly as interesting without the raindrops. It's amazing how a little "bling" changes appearance.

Thanks for taking time to look and comment Jan. I really appreciate it.
