Default Tulips and red stuff in a glass

My husband went to the shops today and came home with these.


Tulips-2


Tulips-3


and I have been searching for things to do and although this is far from perfect I did it from scratch and that is pretty amazing. Baby steps.


Tulips-1

I really love the tulips. I love the yellow colors, the softness of the background and DOF. Creative shot with the glass. How did you do it if I may ask?Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Paul, I would love to tell you if I could, just many hours playing around in Photo Shop Elements.

Your tulips are gorgeous Michelle, the colour of them is lovely and the water drops are so sharp and clear. I dont know how you did the wine glass, but that is brilliant. Lovely presentation too Michelle. The frames match perfect.
