Colours

Gallery: Photo ArtPosted January 28, 2011106 views12 comments

This is my first post in this forum.
The original image was a focus stack from 8 individual frames (yup, bit of an overkill) for more DOF. It was shot against a white BG. I did'nt like the white BG much and hence played around by adding another texture layer on top with minor tweaking with burning & dodging.

Critiques, tips to improve are most welcome...

Oh, this is lovely. Excellent composition, and the BG colors add a lot IMO.
