Thank you kindly YT...:)
Beauty of patina that comes with age effects all things, :) including we humans... or, I like to think so anyway...:)
My comments to you YT and your wonderful Portfolio are because I wanted to for the enjoyment you/they give... :)

I totally agree with you! There is beauty in "old age" too!Colours are still great and the shape is mnagnificent, like one of those pieces of jewelry (broach/pendant head) made by an artist of the guild.The colour is magnetic...burnished gold, this is why it made me think of jewelry.
Dear Leonie, thanks and thanks again for the many visits and comments at my postings, I highly appreciate your kind attention!
Regards,

Hi Liz, and thanks kindly...:)
I'm one of those people who pick, place in water in vase/container, could be an old teapot, and leave them to slowly dry... :) interesting to see which dry the best... and sometimes... ~~GRIN~~ they are still there many weeks later... 'cos I like them...:)

~~GRIN~~ Sandra...I'm starting to feel like the wine and cheese, to nibble & embibe that is... LOL, and on some days, I'm a little *crisp & crunchy* like this dahlia if not slathered in moisturizer... :)
The signature/name is an easy one... I often use it, like a window dressing tool, as a balance to the photo subject, especially if it needs a lift in a *flat* area...
You're right; In PS the tool palette will have a T... when you click on that, the headings across the page at the top change with drop downs. ie. type of lettering/script... size... thickness etc... plus whether type of indentation... Choose your preferences...
The colour comes from the top swatch in the colour palette which you can change via the eyedropper… If you want a shade from your *subject*, just use dropper to find preference… Place mouse curser *where* on your image, and away you go… Then merge/flatten image before doing web save…
Don’t forget to work on a copy and keep original… :)
Hope this is not confusing and is of some help…:)
Onie…

Just goes to show that there is beauty with age as well..why should wine and cheese only get the compliments as they get older!!! The colours look great against the black...very nice...how do you put your signature/name in the frame...PS I imagine?

Hi Onie,
I love how you have this very powerful image floating on the background, beautiful deep colours and perfect balance with cropping / position of the flower all combine to give the pic plenty of "pop".
