The Quiet Picture

Finding my voice in the silence of nature

The other side of the lily

Lily of the valley buds after rainI’ve been working extensively on this lily of the valley pic so I thought I’d post it. Nothing has been removed or added in the content (no cropping either), but I’ve used gradients, exposure adjustments, curves and all of that all over again with the adjustment brush, while trying to be careful not to over-do it. All I wanted was to bring everything to balance and enhance the buds and the droplet. There’s really just one colour in the picture, in different hues, adding to the simplicity. But effective, I hope.

    My first reaction was: hmm, I think I’ve seen this before, but now it looks nicer? Then only did I read the text :D So apparently you did good job on PP.
