sunny {238/365}

It’s that time of year again!

238.365

I love sunflowers :)

This was taken in my livingroom, in front of a window to blow out the background a bit (although I had a little TOO much blowout) and using my lightscoop. Elizabeth Halford, the genius woman that she is, has this tutorial on her site all about whitening and brightening a not-quite-right background using lightroom adjustment brushes.  This is the third time I’ve tried it and omg I love her and her tutorials.

(she’s also a very nice woman who took the time to answer what turned out to be a really duh question from me … thanks girl!)

I then put one of my cloud textures on top of my (now) crisp white background, masked out the sunflower, and voila.

WHY on earth would I want to do all that?

I left things to the last minute and the sun had already almost set.

*wink

PS – next time you’re out and about and see some nice fluffy clouds? Snap a few shots. They come in handy :)

    LOVE this shot! If I had better software I’d attempt what you did, LOL! I did take some photos of clouds the other day coincidentally, LOL! This is beautiful, and you should indeed be selling your stuff! Also love the silhouette pic above!
