MY FLOWER BALLERINA




In post-processing of this photography I used a texture from CoffeeShop blog.
Thank you Rita for all beautiful and great free photoshop actions, lightroom presets, textures etc. which can be found on your site.

This week I participate for the first time in 6 beautiful memes (in alphabetical order):


Macro Flowers – Saturday
Macro Friday
Macro Monday
NF Macro
Today’s Flowers


And once again I participate in Photo Art Friday.

Some of my other macro photographs you can see in posts “MACRO” and “ULTIMATE FIGHTER”.


Editing: One day after posting my photography I discovered a beautiful meme
Life in Pictures. So, I decided to participate in it.

    Hi Tatjana,
    For me, the texture you've created for the Hibiscus accentuates its natural appearance beautifully.

    Your gift with photography whether in Black & White or Colour is always very intriguingly interesting.
