Sometimes... by maggiemae

Sometimes...

the actual colour of a fuschia doesn't look real - the pinks are shocking pink and the purples are intense violet. I modified this one's colour and she didn't feel a thing!

Thanks to all for the kindest of New Year's wishes to me!
It turned out stunning...great processing!!

Are you sure Yolanda isn't hiding in that flower? I'm sure I see one of her purple curls. Seriously, it's a lovely shot -- with or without the purple haired minx!

@catwoman2 Yolanda has gone to a New Years, party, Mary and hasn't come home! Mr Man has gone to find her!

@swguevin Thanks Sheila - nice that it pleases others not being entirely natural!

I like the desaturated feel of this but still very crisp focus.

@sunshinephoto5 Thanks, Dawn - I took so many photos as it was in dark light and difficult to get that focus so sharp!
