Purple

Like how the texture and colours turned out on the hydrangea. Full Frame. Frac'd one layer and blended with the orig. Petal at the top was toned down with paint with light (photoshop action).
Don't have any interaction with water images that are worth posting so I don't have anything for the theme:(.

Hi Jackie, this is really lovely. The petals are sumptuous and the frac work puts it over the top for me. Is this from your 7D?

Yes Kerry. The colours and like you said dynamic range are great. I found another setting to turn off called ALO, which I had on. I am getting a little more used to it now.:)

WOW! I love it! The color and the effect are awesome. I think it's all the depth in this image and the way the blooms pop off the page that make this so special. Just wonderful!

Very nice effect ... I like the color tones..well done

Beautiful Jackie - the depth and colour tones are gorgeous :)

Those petals DO jump right off the page, Jackie! I find the right side of the image to be a little bit too dark compared to the left side...I'd suggest trying to open the shadows up just a little bit more or making the difference between the two sides a little more gradual. The purple in this is sumptuous!

Nice image and application, Jackie.

Nice colors and lighting.

Beautiful image, Jackie! Those lovely blooms just jump off the screen at you, and I love the purple color range. :) Well done!

Jackie, you did a fantastic job with this hydrangea. Like the texture, the purples and the frac effect. Nicely done.

Thanks for the comments everyone, I appreciate them. Purple is my favourite colour!

Jackie - I love the purples, the frac work, the composition and the depth it created. Great work!
