Hard frost coming so yesterday I picked the last rose and played with my homemade table top studio.
Comments welcome

    I like it Dana, nice shot. There's some nice texture to the petals.

    Well, Dana, we meet again. I feel no fear in photographing roses at home, studio, whatever, smile.

    That is one nice flower. I really like how you handled it! The composition. The lighting that I don't notice so it must be great, and the frame.

    nice,

    ginger
    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    That's fine! You think of a Rose as being soft and dreamy.eek7.gif

    Thanks everyone!

    I did sharpen it a little bit in PS, but since I'm really green, I didn't want to sharpen too much.

    Now if we could invent smellaphoto! Scratch and sniff. Wouldn't that be great. Ohhh the smell of the woods after a rain, the honey locust, the sweetness of a corn field, new mown hay. Ahhhhhhhhhh

    Graphy if there was a plugin I'm sure you would find it out there. rolleyes1.gif
