Playing With Edits

July 31, 2012  •  Leave a Comment

Once in a while I get bored and sit and play with edits in Photoshop and NIK. I did this one up this morning. The first shot is what came straight out of the camera, nothing done to it at all. I wanted the clutter gone and the purple and orange colors to pop and to soften it up to give a dreamy effect. Not sure how I feel about it other than I took enough time to edit it I figure I might as well post it.

 

Obviously it's a bit under exposed and lots of other flowers competing with the prize iris in the middle.

 

 

What I ended up with. I duplicated the original layer and turned it to a B&W and went to town erasing the iris back in. I also stamped out the other iris in the background.

 

Happy Trails ~ Gina
