My dreamy peonies, a green crackle vase, and fragrant candles.
This week the theme for Texture Tuesdays at Kim Klassen Cafe is 'three'. Here I've created a still life using three different elements. I've been dreaming of peonies since the first shoot appeared in May. Me trying to capture the essence of a peony! are you kidding? But this is how I feel about them. They are frilly and fragrant and are here for such a short time I am left to wonder later - was it a dream?
After adjusting exposure and adding some blur I applied one layer of Kim's beautiful texture 'subtly yours' at 50% soft light - then using a layer mask, I played around until I had revealed a bit more of the flowers.
