Re: Pink Pixie

Not so keen on this one Chris - I can see the focus on the stamens but the dark area to the right and the oof green area on the bottom is a bit distracting

Think it would work better with a tighter crop on the left right and bottom

Thanks Stan, I can see what you mean, but it took a while to get the processing just right, just how how I envisaged it as i took the shot.

But thanks for looking and your comments, which are always helpful.

Thanks Ian it turned out how I wanted after a fair bit of processing.

Re: Pink Pixie

To throw a different slant on things, I like it as it is apart from the OoF green to the bottom. Tough crowd hey Chris

Thanks Alan, I did think about loosing the oof green but decided to leave it in as its part the overall effect I was looking for.

Tough crowd? Naw, the only way to learn and improve is to have valued comments and advice. We all see thinks differently thank goodness.
