    Default A rose by any other name ...

    Juanita let me borrow one of her Valentine's roses, as long as I would send her a copy of the photo for her memories file.

    Sorry I am late for the celebration, but I was down with the flu this past week and not really into going outside to catch the light on the roses. This one was a simple enhancement of the colors using Photoshop Selective Color, Accented Edges and Curves, as well as removing the backyear BG and substituting the Blk BG.

    I have another image of the full bouquet on my FB site, for those desiring to see the rest of the story!

    Enjoy!

    Stunning is right! Nice job Mark. A hint of stem would help anchor it but I know it probably was not your vision for this one.

    Very dramatic colors, Mark. I like it a lot. The framing is perfect for the image. Hope you're better now

    Mark, this is stunning! Wonderful light and color. Dark bg makes it stand out well. TFS.

    Thanks all for viewing and comments. Appreciate it.

    Sorry Denise, the stem is behind it. I had to remove the vase that was holding it. Don't feel comfortable drawing a stem, so I left it. But appreciate your comment. Just another vision!
