Image of a Pink and Yellow Sunflowers from Belarus
These two little bees were quite happy hanging around with this beautiful colored sunflower at the Old Village of Ayaymku restoration in Belarus. It was really simple to post-process. In Lightroom the new Artistic 02 profile was applied and then just a few Basic panel changes. The flower was selected from the busy background in Photoshop’s Select and Refine dialog. A background was placed behind the flower – one I had painted in Corel Painter that had some nice green and pink strokes. Created a Color Burn blank New Layer and painted with white to emphasize some of the color in the petals and set it to 70% layer opacity. Cleaned up the bees just a little so they stood out a little more. Added the text using the Castile Inline Grunge font. A Light Leak was applied using a pink to yellow leak. A little Nik Viveza 2 was applied and one of my borders using a layer style was added. (See my How to Create a Quick Layer Style Border or Frame blog). That was it. Have a great day!…..Digital Lady Syd
