    Ha! Very cool. Might just be my monitor, but I'd reduce the saturation just a hair.

    This age of on-line display is such a bitch! I see this image differently on my iPad, my MacBook Pro, and my 30" Cinema display at work - and the laptop and 30" display, sitting on the same desktop, in the same ambient light, we're both profiled using the same Spyder device. Arrrrrggg.

    Looks a tiny bit too saturated to me also, but then I'm on my uncaliberated work screen.

    Love the photo, the concept and all the colours work well together, but if it was my image, I'd PS another petal in to hide the small patch of skin at the top, but then I never know when to leave PS alone lol.

    Interesting suggestion. I have the idea of NEVER changing elements of an image ingrained, that with something like this I don't think of it. And given that I positioned the flower, which was on the table, in front of her, this is already a contrived image - so why not?mwink.gif

    This is such an over-the-top and in-your-face ( no pun intended ) image that I feel the exaggerated colors are quite appropriate. I actually feel like this is one of your most arresting pieces of work, BD. Great imagination.thumb.gif

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.
