Don't like cherries? how? cherries are beautiful, there wasn't a model left by the time I had finished shooting.

Thanks amazzen, I use photo shop elements, I created a mask with level adjustment, then added another layer and painted it white, I halved the opacity then erased over the cherries.
Hope you can understand that.

My, we were busy, weren't we? I'd say your efforts were well spent because these are great images, photo-ad quality. You've started a new challenge...maybe we all ought to eat our props!

Well only if they're edible, I finished the afternoon with some agave leafs, they didn't get eaten. Thankyou Mike.

Great Post Michele! You have a very creative mind! These are lovely and well done!
I like the idea and the reflections. Did you use a tripod? The focus is perfect and the lighting is as well.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.
