I took this photo at Belterra last summer. I used this as a screensaver for awhile as that was my purpose behind taking the photo. I knew that if it turned out it would be a nice screensaver. This was a large, fresh cut arrangement that was sitting on a table in the hallway. It was simply beautiful. Large and real! I was amazed when I discovered the arrangement was live flowers.
This is the original photo (above). I also did some more cropping and playing on Picmonkey. (below)
Cropped this one, played with color saturation, added the faded effect and text. You can see in the photo above this one where this flower was.
I don't especially care for the photo above and while I generally love this type of flower, I guess the colors are keeping me from loving them. I took these at Belterra too. Belterra is a gambling boat and hotel about an 1-1/2 outside of Louisville in Indiana. We have a girls weekend there a couple times a year. It is so much fun! Of course, I just love staying in a hotel - doesn't matter where it is. I love it! Okay, here is an edit I did of this photo
This is my entry for Tones on Tuesday.......(just found the party)

Thanks S hirley - the editing that I do is quite simple - a click of the mouse here - a click of the mouse there and done!
