Merry Christmas Wreaths

Not a hundred percent happy with this (I cut the tip off the arch) but close enough to use it as a filler. The color shot was nice, but when I converted it to black and white and added some selective coloring in, it seemed to take on new life, so I kept it (although it's an effect that's often over-used).

[Annie D]

looks like to weeping eyes - I love doors

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Oh dear! It's actually a very happy place. I love doors too!

[Robyn]

Effective selective colour

[Lynn]

I love doorways too. and think the selective colouring gives it a nice Christmassy feel. Super image.

[Nicole Campbell]

Beautiful Ann

[Sally Ings]

The selective colouring works so well! I like the symmetry

[Francoise]

I think it works.

[alia_801]

I think selective colour is perfect for this shot - it draws attention to the wreaths and gives a nice balance to the pic.

[Suse♡]

Very effective use of SC, I like this a lot!

[Islandgirl]

I love the sc it makes the door pop!

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Catherine]

Very clever! Stunning. Fav

[Linda H.Y. Hegland]

works very nicely in this case though

[Nicole]

very pretty with the selective coloring!

[Rosie Kerr]

The SC is effective here, I think, to help the holiday bows pop. I cut the top off of doors, too. :)

[Dione Giorgio]

Well done with the sc. The wreaths really pop out.

[alta]
