Ron, what processing did you do here, it is beautiful. I love the brightness and yet the darkness of the shot....does that make sense? I'm sure you know what I mean. I love the end results.

Beautiful shot Ron, the soft focus works very well on this subject. 800 ISO was it poor light...?

@Observing: I don't really remember ... I probably forgot to turn it back down after shooting in some low-light situation.

Like the atmosphere on this shot. Also very curious how did you make it happen. Filters in Photoshop, perhaps?

Lovely. Especially like how you're vieing the flowers thru the fence.

cool shot. did you use maybe a blending mode like the multiply one in photoshop?

@danthro: I definitely did something in Photoshop ... I don't remember exactly what. I was doing a series of shots using a modified Orton method in which you blend three layers - one sharp, one over-exposed for highlights and one blurred. This is the result of some experimentation.

The processing sure brought out a beautiful glow.

Lovely! I like the flowers peeking through the bars, the contrast of light flowers with dark bars and background, the soft round shapes against the hard straight lines.

Very nice processing...has almost a fairytale quality to it. Love the light in the bottom left corner. Great job!
