Week 4 of Shoot & Edit- Edited

One thing I don't want to do is over edit a picture like I did a few weeks ago. I've learned that sometimes that SOOC is just better than any edit. So, this week, I didn't feel a lot of editing was necessary.
*The only thing I really did to this one was flip the photo from landscape to portrait and add a frame. I think I may have lightened it just a tad bit and darkened the shadows.
*With this photo I left the color like it was and ran a texture over it, with a really light opacity and added a frame.

Since we had this really bad storm, I have been able to play around with my camera and roses. Which led to this photo collage:

Really gorgeous flower shots! I love them!

I think we've all been guilty of over-editing on occasion. It's great to learn from that experience!
