Seek Beauty

11Apr2013-0475-Edit-2

I rarely desaturate a photo to this degree- and I NEVER EVER use a white vignette.  Never say NEVER!

I started with a Lightroom preset from Matt Kloskowski (he offers them free on his blog); this one is called Wedding Fairytale.  I’ve actually used it a few times for flowers (it would be great for newborn babies too, I think); it’s a good one! I added a layer of Kim Klassen’s 1301 texture and this quote from Bill Cunningham, a street fashion photographer for the New York Times (this week’s Texture Tuesday’s challenge is to add words to our photos).

Speaking of beauty, head on over to Kim’s site for some links to beautiful textured photos; the link is at the bottom of the page.

  1. Oh this is simply so gorgeous! But I love LR presets and the vignette option. Stunning! Now I need to check out Matts presets. Thanks Melinda!

  2. This is absolutely beautiful. Thanks so much for mentioning Matt Kloskowski. I did not know about his site but will check it out. Presets are so nice and time saving. The line in this flower make me think it is an orchid. genie
