This is the entire picture, uncropped. I really like the shadow of the flower and the starkness of the white flower against the green leaves and dark water. I've tried cropping a number of ways --- wasted space and all that --- but nothing seems quite right. Do you think it's fine as it is? Hurray! I have a new scanner. I thought the scan turned out pretty well but it's a tough one with the brilliant white.
Hey Dawn the new scanner is definitly a help to you...dont mind the heat on the flower it works with the mottled light hitting the pads....crop is nearly there you just need a minor top and left crop on this to center the flower..this pic is dying to be centered....nicely done DAWN
YOur new scanner has definately helped in the clarity department....very sharp picture...nice color...nice photo....white maybe a hot but not sure...i guess it wouldnt be if it were a white flower huh...lol...but I like it Dawn.
