  1. These are gorgeous! Did you enchance the colors on the blue and purple flowers at the top? So vibrant! Also love the picture of the three angels praying! I see some talent here!

  2. On the top two, I knocked the exposure back a bit because the lighting in that area of the store was fluorescent and was washing them out a bit - even on a "shade" or "cloudy" setting. The 3rd one had the exposure at "0". But they were amazing looking flowers - although in the interest of full disclosure, the tags on them did declare them to be "tinted".

    They had such pretty garden statues of angels and fairies - but that lighting wasn't great either - the color versions looked too brown, so I ran them through Gimp and desaturated the color to B&W. The growing stakes that just looked so cool all piled up together needed to be B&W too. Just about everything was shot at f4.0 or f4.5 in Aperture priority.

    The only editing I did is the one with the dresser and all the yellow items - I turned the white tags on the candlesticks yellow so they didn't stand out as much. :)

    Glad you liked them! I had fun taking them.
