Photographs a rose

[jasonc]

normally, I usually don't photograph a lot of things of nature. I have and do have photos but it isn't something I normally photo outside of the moon or the sun over a favorite subject. but this big red rose at the in laws caught me eye. my wife pointed it out as we once had a rose that she planted when I was away for the guard for a month and was the same color. playing with tint and then making it a black and white with clarity created this effect.
I am

thinking of the black dahlia but it fits.

same rose, tint and color adusted and tint was set a bit towards the lower end. I also added clarity and contrast to the color first then when to the black and white. funny how the same rose gave me totally different effects.

Beautiful flower. I'm proud to have it a part of my name as well.

This is a fantastic image. Precisely focused right where it counts. And I love the bokeh; the out of focus background enhances the sharpness.

I hope you don't mind; I wanted to see how much more detail was in that image, so I tweaked it a bit.

Just a beautiful image. What camera and lens were you using?

a Nikon 3400, my zoom lens at max as I stood back to get that. I believe was at about 10 feet. my camera keeps a log when I hit the file. oh I know, if I used gimp I could have done better but I cant upload to imgur with gimp, so I would have to use a snippit file and then posted it.

Just save to your computer from gimp, and then upload to imgur.

Or get a fee account at Flickr (one terabyte free)

Ah, instead of hitting "save as", use "export to" then indicate the location you want on your computer, and it will save as a jpeg, not the GIMP format, which only GIMP uses.

I know, it's stupid, but there you are.

It might not, if the image is on a thumb drive or an SD card. Try moving it to a file on the hard drive.
