Last Year's Photo

Photo a Day, 4 April 2006... The daffodils are quite a bit ahead of last year... Just playing with composition today. I made a duplicate copy of the shot and did a canvas texture on it and then used a mask to selectively apply it to the background so the flower stands out a bit more... just playing around in Photoshop a bit.

ACR, Some dodge/burn using curve layers, Additional "canvas textured" layer with mask to give background a texture, Framing, Sharpening - Photoshop CS2

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/100s f/7.1 at 100.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
