Glistening Tulip

Bob, I've never done any scanning myself, although I'd certainly like to begin when I get a little more time. My opinion, though limited, is that this is an excellent first effort. In fact, I'd call it excellent even from a skilled scanning veteran. I like it a lot. Beautiful and very artistic.

Bob:
Wow! You are on top of the scanning curve already.
Top mark for arrangement and post processing. I like the peek look into the tulip center with the petal turned down and the inclusion of the leaf is masterful. Very Fernstein like.

This is something I'd love to delve into myself, but just havent taken the jump yet.
From all the scans I've seen, this is very nicely done Bob! The arrangement is excellent and it certainly does glisten.

Stunning work Bob, love the lines and detail , the lighting is just superb !

Wow, this looks like a photo from a "pro" scanner, Bob! Wonderful comp with the lowered petal. Great details and color. I really like the depth that scans reveal.

great work, Bob...fantastic light and details

Great flow through the frame, with striking colors and, of course, the bent petal view of the innards adds a lot. To my eye, the colors in the petals seem very contrasty, is that a scanner effect?

Exquisite detail and texture. Love the effect.

Bob, great job here. I love working with the scanner; it's very challenging. Great detail on the petals. What type of scanner are you using? I find that composition is the most challenging. Keep up the good work.

Hi Bob Beautifully arranged and composed. excellent color and light!!! Everyone loves your first scanning attempt, what more can i say

On a learning curve? Well...! End of lesson. This is marvelous. Great comp, clarity and dramatic light.

OOOOooooooooo! . . . or something like that came out of my mouth when this opened. The light on the subject is just superb as is the comp. Great shot Bob. >=))>
