This one is for my daughter. Got PS as a present from her. That 'obliged' me to 'play' with it. Had, however, no PS experience at all, so it was a pretty hard job for me to achieve some reasonable results. Think I am now that far that I can offer her, and show you, this 'attempt' without having to be ashamed of the result. I'm curious what's your opinion on that. Any comment is welcome. Hope that I can keep my Foofy Number that Mark (sasraku) gave me, lol. Thank you in advance.

You have done very well, Cornelius. From my experience a red rose or any red flower is a difficult thing to photograph because you cannot get the edges of the petals clearly unless the light conditions are perfect. Your rose looks lovely - a suitable present for your daughter.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
I am singing:
Happy birthday to you...2x
Happy birthday dear Petra!
Happy birthday to you!!!!!!
This red Rose is a wonderful gift, from a wonderful father!
I think, Petra, you must be very proud, and very lucky
with a father, ( Neptunus miss him! ) and grandfather like this!
Take care of him!
Congratulations to both of you, and I hope you have
a wonderful day!
Kind regards!

MY PHOTOGRAFIC VISION...
I am not an artist, I only let you see with my eyes...!
I am surely very glad that Petra got you PS.. cos you sure are creating miracles with it.. i just love this.. the red is popping off the flower and the "flowy" feeling you get when looking at is, is really great.. well done.. and keep "practicing"

Live every day as if it's your last... and take "pictures" of it ;)
Cornelius this is excellent and for being new at this I would say we can except some wonderful work from you done like this. Very eye catching. Sandi♥

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life.
What a great first effort C. I know BS but not PS. It doesn't surprise me that you did so good. I can't imagine you doing anything that's not good or at least your best effort. Happy Birthday Owd Captain and nice to meet Petra. You're a good person C.

great colours , the rose does stand out yes, but looks lost in the black background, just drifting around

I think the 'experiment' turned out very nicely, Cornelius. The contrast between the red, red rose, and the black, black background is amazing.

God's magnificent creation is full of beauty waiting to be captured - when you think you've seen it all, something you've never seen comes up and amazes you.

Deze poging mag zeker gezien worden Cornelius,al had een extra groen blaadje,een knopje of stengel het geheel serieus kunnen opkrikken(volgens mij althans).

For the gang of rose lovers on the site, this red beauty is a TREAT. I am impressed by your mastery of PS. Petra has one smart Dad.

This is about as foofy as they come so I would say you will certainly keep your number Cornelius.
Happy Birthday too!
The rose looks like velvet and is a beautiful colour. It is a real eye-catcher.
I would have liked it a bit more off centre and perhaps the border a bit finer.
But having said that I would be proud if this were one of mine.
Hope to see more of these from you :)

The question is not what you look at, but what you see ~ Marcel Proust
I can tell you, I always have problems with the clearness of red flowers ... you managed that job perfect. I am sure your daughter loves her gift - I do.

You did a very good job on this Cornelius...I am sure Petra liked it...it is a nice subject...Photoshop does have a very steep learning curve...but can do a lot of things...
