What a busy time...turns out our lovely new girl Izzy is excellent in the car so we journeyed about all weekend with her...having taken a break I'm now a bit behind, so a quick edit today...
I used Kim's 'subtly yours' texture and took the picture to lightroom and played with the saturation to give an old faded retro look...hope you're having better weather where you are, it's freezing here again!

ReplyDeleteHehe! Yes, she was happy there, it's so nice to be able to travel with her :)
DeleteI do love the color and texture of this imaage, Ruth! Beautifully photographed and edited! We've had two days in the high 80's, which is not normal for early May. I think we'll be back to the 60's and 70's by the weekend, though.

ReplyDeleteI love this just as much as your 'Bloom True' that I purchased a print of. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, and thank you for purchasing my print :)
DeleteSuch a beautiful pink Tulip!
ReplyDeleteAwww so wonderful about your sweet Izzy! And my! that photo is just amazing!! LOVE IT! Wish I had some extra money right now! I would buy a print of this for sure! My granddaughter called and said she has to pay a ticket violation of $350 and didn't have the money, so we felt sorry for her and that's an expense we didn't need. Oh well, what do ya do?
ReplyDeleteI will keep your prints in mind though, I didn't know you sold them!
Hope you get some warmth very soon!
Beautiful shot, the details of the tulip petals are excellent as it your processing. Wonderful texture work :-)
