Flower photos don't usually interest me very much, but this is just sumptuous. Colour, texture, lighting, composition - very nice!

Lovely rich colours. Lighting is just spot on for making the most of the colours. Mouth watering.
Congratulations on getting into print. Well done.
ok, i must have seen the thumbnail for this a dozen times already and i finally decided to look at it, (maybe again). i can't put my finger on what it is about it that makes it so devine. smooth but not lacking in texture. do you know what i mean, and if so, would you devulge your secret?
Hi Lucie,
it's not a complicated process. Duplicate the layer in photoshop, add a touch of gaussian blur to the new layer and then blend using soft light or multiply.
That's it... you may need to repeat the process a couple of times uisng multiply for soft light in turns but basically that's it. Different subjects require differing amounts of blur and blending and some just won't work at all but it's just matter of experimenting and trial and error...
I find reds, oranges, purples, flesh etc. work quite well while yellows and light colours tend not to.

thank you so much for sharing that. i'm gonna have to look up soft light or multiply, cause i have no idea where to find that.
Excellent, lovely colour. Very well taken.
