Lemonade Comes to Mind...

Gave the tips a bit more saturation on the first -- trying something different but the lighting on the others is really hitting the tops of the yellow giving them a more saturated look. Flowers and blooms are hard to take I think... appreciate those who turn a bloom into a work of art.

    First and third are sweet Anna Maria! thumb.gif
    I like the group hug in the bokeh in first! I love the bg in last.
    The bright yellows are tricky as I too found that out. In Lightroom I reduced the yellow sat by -25 or more and same for orange sat. Kept luminance normal, +10 to +20.
    Also while exposing, leaned toward underexposing!
    Cheers!

    I'm loving #2 for the light and airy white background, and for the negative space at the bottom, with only a couple of defocused stems.

    All of these are great! I love the color in #1, and the scene in #2. #3 is also nice, but I love the others a bit more.

    A great set. 1 & 3 are strong with color and composition thumb.gifthumb . I like #2 for the light background, but I personally feel the inclusion of the out of focus stems and buds near the bottom do more to distract from the image than they do to add to the overall composition. Just one opinion.

    I don't know where I'm going, but I'm going anyway.

    A great set AnnaMaria! I think #3 sets of the pattern (and colors) of the flowers most effectively! clap.gif

    ThanksmAll. The first one were hanging against a light color wall and the second was within the bush.

    I like no 3. The bg and contrast are better.
