I would still hang it on my wall I'm glad you pointed that out because I hadn't actually noticed how close I came there. Thanks for the comments! Steve Cavanaugh

inthedeck Cream of the Crop  More info | Jul 26, 2008 14:50 | #5 Nice shot. I don't know if you burned the shot in PS, or not, but, the green leaf in the top left quadrant of the rose is a bit bright, as compared to the rest of the background. Maybe burn that in, and with the crop, etc. it'll be poi-fect. MCSquared Photography

I went back and looked - the crop was in camera, so I really can't change it. But there was a better image from that standpoint, although the light was slightly different. That one turned out to be a bit harder to process the way I did the first, but it's not altogether terrible - just different.  Steve Cavanaugh
