Hi guys!
I took this Bright orange flower in my Grandmas back garden. i tried to really focues on flowers, when i took this flower I wanted to also take the stem and I did.
I didn't really do anything to it but i did change the size.
I really hope you all love it.

Crop and enhancement

Hi Minks,
I did a few things to bring out the flower a bit more:
I cropped the photo from the top (to cut out the pink flower) and a little tiny bit from the right.
I also sharpened the photo to make the flower a little bit more clearer.
The orange colour is really beautiful, so I brought it out a little bit by increasing the saturation.
I played around with Tone Adjustment to make the background a bit darker and the orange flower more vibrant.
Because I sharpened, the photo went a bit grainy :( so I used NeatImage (http://www.neatimage.com/download.html) to take away the noise :)
Finally, I added a thin border.
I hope you like my workshop.
