2-10-04 Silk Roses

"But they're only imitation, like your imitation love for me." Anyone remember Marie Osmond singing that? These are some silk roses a co-worker keeps in her office. I am learning PhotoShop (just got CS loaded over the weekend) and did some experimenting with a cool filter, some shadow/highlight manipulation and then I used the magnetic lasso and added a gaussian blur to give a shallow depth of field and a sort of halo. I'm just getting started with PhotoShop and I can see it's going to be fun.

Nikon Coolpix 3100
1/60s f/5.6 at 5.8mm iso100 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto
