One of several versions I'm playing with on this image...not sure which I prefer yet. 180mm lens, f/8@1/160. RAW image processed in LR; some Viveza work done here and there...slight vignette applied with NIK ColorEfex, as well as a touch of Tonal Contrast...then Fractalius and Topaz Simplify...still trying to coax a bit from this image.
John, I love the effect on the lotus, I wonder if a CCW rotation would add some interest? Just a thought but I do like the way you have presented this with the careful framing. The details are lovely.
Hi John, good colors,texture and comp. Well handled!
John, I love the delicate feel that the filters add to this image. Beautifully done.:S3:
Thank you for the comments and views....Denise, is this something like what you had in mind (re rotation?)
Hi John, I do like it. I think it minimizes the top UR petal just enough.
Hi John, repost works better for me and the fract work is beautiful.
Hi John.....Loving the colors and the frac processing. I do think the repost works a tad bit better for me
I very much like the processing work you have done on this image--beautiful lines, light and colors. The repost is more pleasing to my eye. Overall, the crop does not work for me, even though I like tight crops. I think perhaps the crop needs to be tighter or include more of the flower. Also, I think angling the flower would add a softening effect. Just my thoughts.
