It’s got to the point where I think I buy flowers more so that I can photograph them, than just “for my girlfriend.” But I don’t think she is complaining. I picked up these red carnations (I think they are carnations) at the local grocery store for $5, “for Alexa,” and then I get to have fun photographing them. So tonight I got my tripod out, used our laundry room door as a background and snapped some pictures. Here are three of my favorites.
Did a little work on them in Photoshop Elements. I enjoy using the vignette feature, which lightens or darkens the corners.
The same red carnations, but in black and white. Had to do at least one in black and white. I really like the contrast between the light and shadows. Pleased with that. But my favorite of the bunch is the one below.
Enjoy!
