Symmetry — a yellow, sunlit flower against a deep blue sky [1]

The sky makes a beautiful background for flowers. You might have to lay in grass, but it’s worth it for a photo like this. I am pleased that the yellow, blue, and green colors mix nicely. :smile:

Buy a 4*6 copy for $0.95 (USA only). Lustre finish. After adding, go to your shopping cart [2].

Source image [4]. The colors pop because of added contrast, and a blending layer with the “soft light” style in Photoshop. I cloned in extra sky at the top; otherwise part of the flowers get chopped off in the print. This is one thing you need to watch out for if you’re going to do borderless printing; don’t put stuff at the edge of the frame or it will be chopped off (bleed edge [5]). Same for television because of overscan [6].
