Your compositions against simple dark backgrounds are unfailingly stunning.
Thanks so much! These are radical revisions of the originals, so much so that I’m working on a couple of posts to describe what I did … stay tuned! 🙂
Thank you. I will definitely stay tuned.
The silver is especially nice.
Thank you! In the original photos, the silver was actually white … one of the nine had a slight silver shine to it, so I decided to try and turn all the white to silver using Lightroom. I think I got it, and learned quite a bit in the process … more on that soon! 🙂
Love the colors and texture.
Thank you, Bernice … I appreciate the comment! 🙂
