Sharing Outcomes - Flowers

[Issabella]

Risking to break the charm of the flowers and Dinasset say "horrible" I transformed these flowers which I caught borrowed.

[dinasset]

NO COMMENT!!!
(jejeje...)

[sallyanne]

nice montage, SallyAnne

before Issabella succeeds in ... destroying it (jejeje...)
I put here my experiment (just stretching...)

I'll learn some day.

Sallyanne and Dinasset. Fantastic your outcomes.

[dinasset]

:rofl

I'll learn some day.

Issabella, you learned already a lot! Really! And you never stop.
You wanted to get ... that comment by me! Because from my many outcomes, you know my preferences.
Sometimes it's important to try an extreme experiment, to see what comes out.
So, you did it right. I was joking...

[Issabella]

Thank you so much, my friend. I thought that flowers weren't a topic for me.
Besides, to get my last outcome.... I had corrected the colours balance manually and then I had corrected it with curves, duplicated the layers and changed the layer mode. quite a long time to destroy the flowers.
Thank you so much Dinasset.

[sallyanne]

I have a cpl more and maybe I have destroyed it?

Didn't do a lot. tried to bring out the texture more so enhance the texture. then i did a blur border and a 'beatify 'simple border'.

I used the same but before I bordered it I gave it a lomo plus a blurred border.

[Issabella]

Sallyanne, you are such a creative smart person. I like your outcomes very much.

[dinasset]

You are right. but yours is much more nice than mine.
What did you do to get the green colour of the background to become in bright blue?

[Issabella]

That is very nice too. I like it.

[dinasset]

You are right. but yours is much more nice than mine.
What did you do to get the green colour of the background to become in bright blue?

go to: Colours -> Auto -> Stretch contrast

[Issabella]

I had never seen this before. I've just used it but my outcome is blue in the flower not in the background.

[dinasset]

I used my "personal" stretching filter, but also repeating the action with the standard one I notice only a bit less of colours.
Pls put here your outcome
I'll check ...

[Issabella]

Thank you Dinasset, here my try.

[dinasset]

well done!
what do you not like?
blue is everywhere....

[Issabella]

I wanted to get blue in the background as yours. But At the end I got it, I don't know if so perfect but it's ok. Thank you so much.

(When I tried the stretch on my colourful outcome it became the flower in blue and I wanted the background.)

[lylejk]

This one's sort of cheating since I used DAP (posted it the other day elsewhere). lol

I did do some G'MIC tricks to enhance the result though.
