Macro Monday ~ Marsh Milkweed



The image below is my SOOC (straight out of the camera) capture. I love the soft pink tones but thought these little beauties needed some more "pop". I used an action called Little Perk in Photoshop and then the dodge tool to darken and further blur the background. What do you think?






I linked up with Lisa's Chaos.

    This is just so pretty. I think the version with PS looks sharper and the flowers are more pronounced. Lovely both ways though.
