 tweaked in DPP, then in CS 2 I adusted levels, contrast, hue/sat, a USM pass, a tweak to selective colour to add a trace of blue to the white areas, then resized, another small USM pass, and saved for the web.

I took this on the Ottawa GTG outing on the weekend - hope everyone had a great time - and thanks to Ralph for pointing out this bee... :)

So lovely. I particularly like the pale blue background, very nice.

He's tinted pink; that's cute. I might have tried a different angle (presuming he stayed put for a few seconds) to get more leaves in the background so there was an interesting pattern there.
