Daisy Bouquet

For those who have been scanning, here is a post of a scan done several years ago of spring flowers. Yes, it takes many tries to get a pleasing composition and much work to get rid of specks caused by pollen, but the results are very detailed and interesting. Was done on a Epson 4180, lid open.

There is a person in the area that does only scans and is making a very nice income from scanning wedding bouquets. May consider trying these again.

Hope you enjoy.

Wow, another exeptional image!!
The detail here is amazing - it looks like a fine art print from a painting.
Lovely colors, and the comp and the high-key treatment is perfect.

Love this Pat. In fact I like it enough that I may consider putting the white lid insert back on my scanner. Superb comp and the kind of masterful post processing I would expect in one of your images. Gorgeous...

Whoa! Really really gorgeous like a fine art print.. :toast: :toast: :toast:
So far I have been using black bg in my scans but I do like the high key bg here. I can see a lot more people will try the scanning techniques with such great images posted by you and Pat Sampson.

Oh, my, we'll all run out and buy scanners and vue scan, Pat. I can see the rush to the hardware stores even as we speak.

This is beautiful.

Only thing I would suggest is to add a bit more canvas.

Quite lovely,

Carol

What's old is new again. :wink: Excellent comp and presentation Pat. As well there is a lady in Cape Breton who is making a living doing florals using a scanner.
