Sorry. Not Sorry.

While I’m rediscovering the joys of Photoshop, you may get several posts like this one you’re staring at.

Below is basically the original image. Yes, a little color correction and eliminated some debris from the petals, you know how it is…


Flower from the Iowa State Fair.

Anyways, I wanted to play with some of the black & white settings in Photoshop and so I made this bad boy…


Changed to black & white and tinted slightly.

Anyways, I enjoy it.
