Yellow Flowers II

Posted by on Jul 6, 2011 in Monochrome, Photography, Plants & Flowers | 10 comments

This is the second in a series of three photos in which I explore different treatments for the same photo of yellow flowers. (Click here for the first photo, a desaturated color version.)

Processing: I did very little to this photo – mostly adjusted curves and applied a black-and-white treatment.

  1. Nice contrast with the first image Caryn. The flower in the foreground really pops in this one.

    @Len Saltiel, Thanks! It’s so crazy how different treatments bring out different qualities in the photos.

    @Eden, Thanks! It’s been a fun experiment. Tomorrow’s photo is totally different.

    @Chantal, I usually like flower photos in color, too, and I think I do favor the color version a little here. Though I did have fun seeing how the b & w treatment would work on this one.
