    Scotty,

    I love what you've done with this photo. There's a subtle and smooth transition of coloration until those spires pop. It adds intrigue to the tone & mood of the image and heightens the drama. Very nice photoshop work!

    BTW, I like the sepia toned flowers better: highlights & details (dew, leaf veins). But, those yellows & greens of the color photo are captivating. It's a tough call.

    Enjoy your summer break. I'll be stopping by to see what you're up to.

    Thanks for your visit to my SWF post.

    Jim

  25. Absolutely magical! Do you photoshop? I know quite a few photographers do. I'm no professional, but I don't even know how to use PHotoshop yet although I'd like to learn. I've seen some amazing photos as a result of the touching up in photoshop!
