This is called a commercial Mum, and it actually quite a large flower. I didn't do too much to it. The usual sharpening, PP, amd cropped and added NIK tonal contrast, and Topaz Small details. Shot at f32 w/ the 100, tripod, using Live view, indoors. I liked the way the detail turned out, and I like purple:)
C'mon guys let's see yours!!!!!! In the PP category.

Original SOC jpeg, no adjustments, just sharpened for web.

Simply gorgeous! One of my all time favorites of yours Jackie. Plus I love purple too:). The petals have so much dimension to them. I bet this would even look great with an Orton effect. Great way to kick us off!!!

Yes Jackie, definitely one of your best! I really like this one a lot, very well done!!

It is gorgeous Jackie. The color and amount of detail is just right to make it "pop"!

Jackie, the base image is beautiful and your pp work really makes this special.. Great work:)

I remember this one well, Jackie, and it is definitely one of your best!!! :)

Can't decide which I like best...both are gorgeous! Great start to the category

Thanks for the comments, I am glad you enjoyed viewing it:)

Jackie, This is outstanding! The colors and the effect.
