Birthday Flowers
Monday, January 28th, 2008
It’s my birthday, and what better way to start, than by receiving gorgeous flowers.
Here is a photoshopped “portrait” version of the flowers. Later in this post I’ll show you the full color image, but here I thought I’d have a little fun changing their appearance in Photoshop.
I decided to emphasize the pink in the arrangement - especially those cute rosettes.
In a previous post I went through how to achieve color with black and white with Photoshop. In this instance I didn’t completely turn the photo into black and white, I just destaurated the colors slightly and brought back some of the original colors from a selection of the photograph.
I could have chosen a few different color backgrounds, but decided to go with black. I have a few different colored sheets of A1 size paper always handy - they are a great, quick way to create a professional look, and it only takes a few minutes!
