I took this close up of a rose outside a restaurant in Cape May. There's something about rose petals that really draw me in- they're so soft and creamy.
We are having a lot of fun with Lucy, but I am falling behind with my commenting. Thanks for understanding my absence for a few days.
Thank you to one and all! We are having a blast with Lucy and treasure every moment!
@swchappell We were in Cape May mid-June celebrating our anniversary so this isn't recent as far as being taken, just in editing.
@grammyn@randystreat I've been playing around with a technique where I highlight edges by sharpening them. It worked really nice on this shot as the edge of many of the petals had captured the sunlight.
@randystreat@grammyn Yes, I do it manually not through an effect. I sharpen once using an overall sharpening effect on the entire picture and then do a second sharpening using "the brush" to sharpen just the spots I want to emphasize. In the case of this picture it was on the edge of every petal.

@haskar That is a beautiful description.
@randystreat Yes- I use a program called Smart Photo Editor, but you could do this in any program.
