Glowing red flowers captured my attention at Fitzgerald’s Park a year ago, but I was never happy with my work on this photo until recently. Now I love it. Hope you like it too!

wow this is awesome. cant stop looking it. it reminds me of something, a movie i think but i cant think of which…
just great job!
Fantastic colours. I can see why you are happy with it now.
Amazing colour. Really vibrant but still natural looking.
Great colour! and I love the composition there’s a real feeling of a whole new world in there.
Nice work
stunning, the colours just keep your eyes glued to the image. really beautiful!
great quality. the purple fellows in top left spoil the impact a bit, imho.
Nice and punchy, I like.
I really like the water drop sitting on the petals.
Very nice. any chance we could see a before and after with details of what you did?
I still love this photo. i wanna know how you did it I will torture you about it next week.
John – I haven’t forgotten. Hopefully tomorrow!
I don’t remember exactly what I did, but I know I desaturated most of the colours a bit, then brought the reds and yellows back up. Then I increased contrast and may have over sharpened with USM.
Then I created an overlay layer, and painted in a circular gradient so that the flower on the middle-right was brighter than the rest. Or I may have created a darkened copy of the image, and used a layer mask to hide some of it around that same flower.
Unfortunately I didn’t save a xcf copy of the photo.
Phil – looking forward to meeting up 🙂
