 The Lucky Flower....or Lucky and the Droops.

I shot this further away from my background than I usually do...the black sometimes yields bits that may not be editable in basic. Trouble is, my lights are fairly well set where they are within in a foot or less on the bottom and a foot and half from side to front on the top. Got to try to rig something so I do have to hold lights as I did when I shot this.

Post: Camera Raw adjustments in PSElements 6.0. Layer adjustments for levels, brightness/contrast and hue/saturation. Crop. Adjust sharpness. Resize. USM.
