Buy an 8*10 copy, in a cherry wooden frame as pictured above, for $49.95 (USA only). Free shipping. I only have 1 in stock, so if you buy more than that, it will take me a week to get a new print back from the lab, before I can mail it to you. After adding, go to your shopping cart.

Photo: Bubblegum Garden

Bubblegum Garden — shiny pink flowers against a rich blue and white sky

I went to Lowe’s flower shop and started snapping photos as I sometimes do. I used my polarizing filter to get the rich blue sky, and waited for the sun to come out (the clouds were moving) to get this shot of these pink perennials. The clouds in the background make the shot; when I got down lower and only included blue sky, the background was too dull.

Bubblegum is pink, and this photo is like bubblegum pop for me, but in a good way.

Just some color and contrast enhancements, plus a light glow effect (by duplicating the image on a new layer in Photoshop, adding a gaussian blur, then choosing soft light blending between the two).

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