Originally posted by NikonJeb: Originally posted by MaryO: OK, so I tallied my comments and the consensus is I should stop playing with borders ;-) At least on today's shot. So I will re-do it tomorrow for comparison and post it along with my day 7 shot, and TRY to get caught up on commenting. This is one busy side challenge! |
Don't let the "Border Patrol" get you down.
I don't!......8>) They keep hammerin' away at me, and I keep ignoring 'em! |
Not down at all. It was fun to play and create the border but that particular border clearly detracts for quite a few folks, so the picture will get a version 2 :-) That's one of the things I like about these side challenges, I can play with things I don't ordinarily do and get lots of feedback, and make changes and get even more feedback. Sort of like the DPL private team threads only with lots more participants!
Really, not complaining at all. I am having lots of fun with flowers :-) |

I will never get caught up with commenting!! Made inroads into my backlog this morning, anyway ... that sounds like a mixed metaphor but I don't think it really is ... I either need another cup of coffee or had one too many this morning :::shakes head to clear it:::
Anyways ...
Here's Day 6 re-do:
(vs. original: )

Originally posted by ephln: Day 7 - Took this one at the dentist's office while I was waiting for my daughter to be worked on. The lady at the desk was great and let me move them around the office so I could change the background and lighting. One of my very few indoor shots as I don't have much experience with indoor lighting techniques...yet.
Very little edit on this...a smidgeon of saturation and sharpening...applied the soft focus and resized for DPC.

Question please? What, if any, border effect would you recommend on this one?

Sorry to post yet another image today but I thought some people might find this helpful.
I did a water droplet test using the technique by Ross Hoddinott from his book "Digital Macro Photography"
more info on his technique in photo description.

He, he, I like your tip from the book, cutting out yukky leaves and so on. I do that all the time. In the wild though, I don't "cut" out the leaves, I routinely clean up the area around the flower (especially dead grasses, they're murder on pictures), chase away all icky bugs, and if there are "undesirables" (yukky leaves, a dead flower) try to bend them away or get them out of the way temporarily, without destroying anything. |
