Taking something, in this case flowers or weeds, which normally wouldn't be worthy of a second glance, and seeing it from a new perspective reveals details and textures which could be missed.It opens up a whole new world of possibilities!

Weeds - only wild flowers in the wrong place.
ReplyDeleteThe beauty is in the details, which you have captured here.
Great pics the black background really makes them stand out.
ReplyDeleteAll your pictures need a second or third glance to see all the details you add to make a flower / weed look so good!! Jackie in Surrey

ReplyDeletestriking against the black background ...
ReplyDeleteSuch a vivid blue...wow!
ReplyDelete(In answer to your question....there are different ways of cutting out. Magic extractor is good, sometimes I use the lasso tools, but on this occasion I just used the eraser. First a large brush...gradually getting smaller as I got nearer to the edges. Hope that helps.)
I'm loving your new macro lens and always amazed at what you do with the images!
ReplyDeleteThese are great against the black and yes, it's amazing what you discover when you change your perspective both in photography and in life!
ReplyDeleteExcellent images as usual, Julia, and excellent insights as well! We all need to open our eyes more and really look at the things that surround us. We've just got back from a few days away and I've got some more juicy textures for you over on my blog - see "Silver Wedding Celebrations 3/5 - out and about in Woolacombe"!! As I photographed them I thought of you!!!
