Comments please! (More Flowers)
Posted By: Fritzvds, 09-05-2008, 11:53 PM

Here's a couple of shots i would like to get canvas printed for my new house. The will be hanging side by side as canvas panels. The flowers were taken from the block so they will be quite fitting to have on the wall! I guess they are kind of before and after photos.

very nice. I like the use of negative space.

Can I suggest that, if you are going to place the canvasses side by side, you might want to give thought to balancing out the tones - particularly the backgrounds? A little more R and G in the hightlights of the second image would both match the first's background and boost the impact of the second perhaps?

Thanks for your thoughts Frank.

I will have to work a little more accuratly on the whites. Are there any ways to match them perfectly using photoshop???

There are easier ways, but I usually just take several colorpicker points (ctrl-click) and then match them up in curves (again ctrl-click). It's quick and dirty but it also gives me a little more control as to what's happening to the rest of the tones.

Thanks Frank,
Dont know if I fully understand what you mean (never used the colour picker before) but I will have a go when I get home from work.
Cheers again.
