I know it's not a Hoya!!!..... Hoya's have waxy dark green hanging foliage and a beautiful scent when it flowers .... (Sorry to disappoint on that one... ) .... Next time I see the plant I will get a picture of the whole shrub... Meanwhile, I have been trying to get a decent shot of this orchid .... several have not turned out well... I think I nailed it today! (???) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post shaggy1969 Posted April 19, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2015 ^ bundycat,I like the colour version the best,my thoughts are maybe to ease up a bit on the sharpening,it looks a wee bit forced. I know this because I would do the very same thing! Nice to see you caring about your images! Is everyone sick of seeing Lotuses and sunrises yet?

Popular Post rhythmworx Posted April 19, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2015 I seem to have an issue with focus and hence overcompensate with 'sharpness'..gotta work on that I guess... A good tip is to apply sharpness as the last editing step...sharpen after the resize. Contrast plays a role in perceived sharpness too. Just thought I'd throw that in, in the hope it may be of help to you. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
