About Reposted as the first time I had this image loaded, it came out very small...
Hope it loads all right this time... lol... :) :) :)

I borrowed a friend's digital camera for this rhodendendron shot under tungsten light. Later enhanced in photoshop. I prefer the vibrancy of colour. The "real" flower was a very understated pinkish purple and with the yellow cast from the tungsten lighting, looked (to me) a bit washed out and lacking "spirit".

Thank you for viewing and any constructive criticism graciously accepted :)

footnote: AAARRGGGHHHHH! It still looks better bigger than this! ROFLOL!

My Dear Gabriela!

How wonderful that you visited:)

And you are right. These flowers look fantastic in the fields. Not so great especially under tungsten lighting. It pleases me very much that you like the way I "pepped up" the colours, and really like your term: "tiger's skin". :)

Thank you my Friend.

All my Loving Best to You!
Aniko :)

I can understand your frustration with the natural colours of the rhodies....they look so great in the fields, but the colours change in the camera. The pink is too bland, the red too red and the purple not purple! So I like what you did here, keeping the details and saturating the colours!I like the details "tiger's skin" on the petals and the "curious" stamen!To me it looks good!

I dunno Dave... I blame no one... :)

At least this version of "Purple Passion" is larger than the same one I posted last year when I first held a digital camera in my hands! (Other than the Mavica I own and no longer use. An unwanted "gift".) Maybe I should pull it out and do some Toy Camera projects??? Hehehehe!!!!!!

This is the NON panoramic image that I referred to in your thread. But I HAVE posted panoramas that are NOT 2:1 ratio and they did not shrink or otherwise alter from that which I posted... go figure... lol...

You ought to see Purple Passion HUGE though. Looks SOOO much better. (I decided to actually downsize it a fraction in case the "gremlins" got to it... hehehe...) It is close to the size I had intended for UF, anyhow... so what the heck, 'eh?

Thanks for you kind comments.

Hugs~
Ani :)

LOL, Ani.. yup. I think that 2:1 rule applies... long as you don't blame it on the cen-sors. hahaha...

purdy stuff... like the highlight to lush colors here...

Hugs,
Dave
