Quote of the Day:
If the man who paints only the tree, or flower, or other surface he sees before him were an artist, the king of artists would be the photographer. It is for the artist to do something beyond this.

I like this. Sometimes artwork is difficult to photograph without the skewed sides, glare of fluorescent lamps, and objects in the way. I think you did a good job with camera angle and exposure, as well as pp work to make it look nice on TL.

It was a good idea to post the original with this as an excellent example of how some pp work can really improve a photo. The results turned out to be very appealing and eye-catching, well worth the time and effort. You've given us viewing treat and also a lesson in the value of post-processing:)

Hi Freddie, good pp work. Really brings it to life. Nice colors and good life. Good job, thanks.

Hi Freddie,
It's really amazing what you -not me- can do with the whole PP thing.
This work of art you can now call one of your own making, and it's a work of beauty.
Did you hear that: they called you Mr. and still you did not listen, but had to shoot first.
Painting is very time-comsuming - if you are running around airports, you'd better stick to photography then.

Your pp work was great. I'm still trying to learn how to do that. I like the colors and the whole feeling of the image. I know a great deal of it is due to the artist(s) of the work(s) but I think you deserve the same amount of credit. It is hard to take a photo like this and still give the work of art justice. I think this was really well done on your part :D.

you did a great job on this, saw the potential, went for it, superb result, thanx, M, (*_*)

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!
I like it:)
