Poppies

[Nicki Gwynn Jones]

Hi Everyone,
Here is another floral offering for the weekly theme :)
50D 300 f/2.8
ISO 640
f/29 1/6th sec
Exp comp @ +1
In PP I cropped an already movement-blurred image, painted out any remaining BG colour and brought out the colour of the flowers with a combination of curves and photoshop filters. From last summer.
Look forward to your C & C's.
Best to all, Nicki

Nicki, Another beautiful image from you. Has your trademark look. Love the high key and I love that I knew it was a Poppy immediately. Nicely done.

Thank you Denise :)

Nicki, I really like this - it has so many different things it could be. I definitely see the poppies but it could
be an Andy Warhol of Marilyn Monroe's lips:D or a Georgia O'Keefe but it is mainly a beautiful Nikki painting:)

Cheryl, thanks so much - I just love the idea of those lips!!! :D
Best,
Nicki

Beautiful composition, Nicki. Love the hk effect and the color. Very painterly!
