ribbon

.

Ribbons, in the floral area of the grocery.

I took this shot because of all the colors, but I am not very fond of it.





Let's play with it.

Watercolor.

I like it better, with this bit of abstraction..............

(click on the pics to embiggen, if you like -- the differences are more noticeable)





Now let's focus the viewer's eye on the more-interesting bits, by cropping.

Better, though I am not fond of the eastery color scheme.





Better yet, though the orange is a bit strong (and isn't contributing much to what's interesting about the image).





Now that's what I'm talkin' about. I quite like this............

I agree...love the curl of the ribbon.

So fun to play with images in photoshop

I need orange said...

I liked the curls, and the shine.....

:-)

Also liked the abstract-ness of the tightly cropped image.........

I don't usually mess with the pics that I like from the outset, so it's a good thing I get ones that I'm not that thrilled with -- I'm much more experimental............
