Tiny wildflowers in vase. The vase is about 2 inches tall. Taken indoors supermacro mode. Played with in PSCS - unsure what all I did.

A classic Marsha!!!!! #1271172Marsha S. Smith April 20, 2005
Thanks everyone - I'm kind of overwhelmed. The little bottle these are in is one of the tiny perfume bottles you can buy in little sets at Christmas - about 2 inches high and 1 inch across. The flowers are from a really ugly weed that has big yucky leaves, but has these tiny little flowers - maybe just 1/4 to 1/2" across. Shot it against a white background, used diffuse glow and watercolor in PSCS. Kind of shot from the top so the bottle looks shorter than it really is.Kathryn (Love) Scheet April 20, 2005
Marsha - this is wonderful!such a pretty little still life - and I love the effects - this is one of those masterpiece images we all hope to accomplish ! #1271329
