Great shot of a great flower. Love the colors, composition, light. I wonder if you might lighten the center just a bit using curves, or somesuch. Really beautiful.
Hi Ken, It looks almost true to form. There are times I lose a bit of contrast or brightness. Sometimes after I post an image I feel it could stand a boost....
I will admit that there are times I overlook it in the original since I was caught up in working it. I have a calibrated monitor which is pretty accurate....
Anita,I'll see what I can do about bringing a bit more out in the center..
Even with the comments on increase and lightness this is still top notch, Dave. The colors have a depth to them without being oversaturated and the center is placed so nicely within the frame.
I also like the composition on this. Love the flower itself as is but might like to see the backgrund a touch more black as suggested above. i would be very happy with this as is if it were mine.:)
Hi, Unless I put a black backround against the image and I couldn't see the the green. Without doing that I missed it. Easy fix and thanks for the comments...
Hey Dave,
Agree with above comments on lightening a few points and especially with Anita regarding the center......I'm OK with the d green bg.....but you know I am fine with black also. Just tweaks to a spectacular flower!
