So Fun Flower
Photoshop has been kind of fun for me to play with lately. It helps us not-so-good photographers by minimizing our shortcomings. And it also gives you a lot of options to showcase your photos in different ways. One of the things I like to play with is saturation levels. It helps the color in your photos pop a bit if things are a bit dismal. But there is a techinique called oversaturation, and it actually explodes the color in your picture and there are some cool effects. The ones I've really liked are pictures where there is an object that is well focused close up, and a background with interesting colors and shapes that tend to blend together so they are a bit blurred together. I love the way it makes the object that is focused look like it is backed by a Monet--like painting of colors and shapes. All these photos are presented mostly right as they come out of the camera, (with some slight lighting and cropping adjustments) and then oversaturated. I think they're really fun.

Okay - so maybe I am over spiritualizing here but how cool is it to think about the fact that the focal point of the picture is Christ and the Monet part in the back are all of us??? I think that pretty well takes the focus off of us and puts it on the one that is "rightly focused".
Love ya.
I think you are one of the bright orange petals in the top photo.
