A Couple of Gerberras

Spent a couple of hours photographing flowers today trying to get out of the-will-winter-never-end blues. Ha! But then I radically changed their color.

Nice! I like the comp of the second one

If I hadn't just nominated your purple flower I would have nominated this 2nd one also! Great job Raiven ... change nothing!

Raiven, another couple of great pics. Agree with the post so far that 2nd one is the pick of the 2. I do like the first one with the soft colours, but I am not sure that the negative space below the flower. I guess it is partly there be cause of the stem. I think if this was above the flower it may work a bit better???

What have you used as the backgrounds in these? They work what ever it is.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

Lol, Antz, the background is my pilates mat but it is far enough away to not show texture.
I changed the color palette on both flowers in Lightroom.

Here is an unadulterated gerberra

Thank you everyone. Flower closeups are very gratifying to photograph.

Here is one more. I was not sure about it at first but after desaturating it and adjusting the color I like the results.

This is the above photo untouched except for minor adjustment to the exposure, sharpness etc.
