The End of My Summer Flowers
Sep 15, 2016 22:24:17 #
Haven't posted lately, mostly trying to update from Elements 6 to Elements 14 and maintain my sanity. Change can be tedious and I don't do well with tedium. But SnapShot has been quite patient and since I vowed to try a few techniques nightly, thought I'd post a couple of my "tries".
Hydrangea in b&w
Butterfly Weed

You must be a very good student - these are both outstanding in every respect!

Great shots. I particularly like #2...RICH color, clarity, composition.... Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much,Carol. After I work and look at an image long enough, I find I'm less certain of what I initially loved about it when I first saw it. I'd hate to be boring. You just made my evening and its been a hard day!

You are welcome and I appreciate you looking in,Redrock. It is such a beautiful plant, if a butterfly would have landed on it, it would have made my day! Maybe I'll eventually learn how to make a composite and just put a bf in there!

Both are outstanding images, but being partial to color, I especially like the second.

Looks like you nailed it Carla. Very well done.

Beautifully done, Carla! Love the color and depth of the second shot, but the monochrome first works perfectly. Excellent work on both!

Tom, I appreciate you saying that. I've admired the way you get the drama of color in your images so I do know you are all about those colors! Thank you for checking this out and your warm comments.
