Hi Gy. I'm glad you still like it. I am not good with PS--am just learning little bits and pieces as I go along. So, those experienced with PS would shake their heads at my method and certainly be able to give you a much easier and less time consuming way to do this, I'm sure. However, I'm stubborn and will spend time trying to do something if I have an idea. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Anyway, here's what I did for this. I suppose it's layers. I cropped and framed the picture; then made the canvas size bigger using what I thought was white (should have used transparent), cut each outside piece from the original uncropped picture and pasted each to match on the framed version; then erased the background that didn't belong on the pasted pieces. I hope that makes some kind of sense.?

Hi Roger, it's considerate of you to notice and to comment. Well, I'm not a grandmother yet. It seems my grandchild has his/her own adgenda. Soon though!
Thanks for the suggestion. I would sure like to do something special when I have some time. Hopefully, something creative will come to mind.

Dear Mary, until cameras come with a little pop-up indicator that says "press now" when the image is beautiful, I think you are considerably cleverer than any camera! I merely use the knowledge and experience aquired over a lifetime of on-again off-again film photography, little of which is much use on digital cameras.

Mary Brown

Roger, thanks for your comment. Actually, I did not use any special lens. I just used the 'Flower' setting on my camera. I really don't know how to best use the manual settings yet, so mostly use the Auto mode and Scene Modes on my digital. Right now, my camera is smarter than me for picture taking.
Take care of you.
Mary

Thanks for your comment, Angelo. I tried to explain how I did this framing in a response to Gilberto under this picture. It took a lot of work as I really don't know how to use PS very well. So, I am sure there was a faster way. However, I wanted to try this idea.

Argh! I'd just decided to let a macro lens I'd bid for on E-bay go, as it was getting out of my price range, and then I see a gorgeous shot like this. I think I'll have sniff around the SH shops in Tokyo... I do so want to start taking good macros. I particularly like the way the flowers are bursting out of the frame in this one.

The flowers are very beautiful and your work with the framing is very nice. I must admit to having no idea how this is done. Then again, I don't think I have many shots that would suit this type of overlapped border.

Sue, I finally got the eamil sorted out. Then i read your note and smiled. You were absolutely right about the spam. I had not done anything, but between my computer's anti spam program and my Internet Providers anti spam filtering I started missing a fewthings the other day. On UF, I was fine with the picture comments as I could read them in my portfolio. However, any replies to comments I had made were lost in cyberspace somewhere. Thanks for taking the time to make the suggestion.

Hi Gilberto, thanks for the comment. Anyone who is a familiar user of PS will probably shake their heads when I explain as I am sure there is a better and easier way to do this. I suppose it is layers. I cropped and framed the picture; then made the canvas size bigger using what I thought was white, but I see it shows a little; cut each outside piece from the original uncropped picture and pasted them to match on the framed version; and erased the background that didn't belong on the pasted pieces. I hope that makes some kind of sense.

Excellent composition.
The email problem maybe a UF thing, unless you are not receiving emails at all... (may be worth checking your spam options incase they are blocking these ones)
Hope you get your emails sorted soon (lol.. hope you get this one... eventually)

Dear Mary, I wanted to send you a direct e mail, but I don't know if I got the address right.
It must be very frustrating for you not to receive comments and for me, not knowing if you received them,. So please acknowledge this comment if and when you get it.
I'm glad I could be of help in respect of your "Mist" photo. The present photo is already among my favorites, because by letting the flowers burst out of the frame, you gave excellent symbolization to the idea of burting summer.
I'm also glad that you were able to see different things in my "From the field 6, 7 and 8" and I thank you for commenting on them.
It seems that these photo, elaborated in P.S. aroused different associations in different viewers.
Best regards,
Rafi
