Settings: (manual) 1/125, 5, 800 ISO, adjusted curve in ACR. 100mm macro, 5D. I'm not too sure on my PPing, but think I ran defog on this one. Cropped in pping. Used my monopod for stabilization.
Same as above, different crop.
1/40, 5, 500 ISO. In ACR, increased contrast, decreased brightness and tweaked the curve.
1/125, 5.6, 500 ISO. IN ACR: increased brightness, custom curves. I ran a screen light layer on this one, for sure. It's a little too light, but I loved the shape of the petals here. 1/50, 6.3, 500 ISO. Custom curve. Iwas going for moodier, more detail in the petal veins.
All input is greatly appreciated. I know I ran the noise reduction filter in PS on some of my rose pictures, but don't now recall which ones. I think my age is starting to impact my memory... but let's pretend I simply am a busy working mom who can't keep everything together in my mind anymore. But that's a post for another day. : )
Thanks for looking, and for all the feedback yesterday. It was fun to read other people think my kids are cute too!

I love yellow roses! My favs are the 1st and 4th. Great composition on the 1st and I love the brightness on the 4th. On my laptop it isn't too bright. :-)
The depth and color in the 1st two are just awesome. Nice clarity too!!
Those are beautiful roses. I love the close-ups. Those petals look so velvety. Wonderful!
Visually, I like the crop and image of #1, but I really like the tweaking you did on the third image! These will look great on the wall!!
They look really good!
These are beautiful! I love the first one and last one best. On the last one I like the back lighting so you see the details of the petal.
i like them all!!!

Sara--these are all so pretty. I love the way you've cropped them. Wonderful layers and petal shapes going on in these. Nice!!!
I love the fullness of the flower... nice job...
these are so pretty and I think they would make a great series to have framed!! I love the first crop in the first set. Great details and that flower is so pretty!
These are all beautiful! I really love the 2nd one!
these are really nice! I really like the color in the next to last one... it's just such a bright cheery yellow.
These are so beautiful. What a great idea for your walls. I totally cannot wait to see the finished product.
And Ruby I thoroughly conquer...Ruby must have some real abandonment issues. Good observations counselor. (You see, that PSY 100 really did help!) LOL
My favorite photo is that last one, the color is PERFECT for the color challenge this month too! :)
I like the exposure and lighting contrasts in that last one... That cool grey-blue is a great backdrop for the yellow!
They all are great! It's fun to play with this. One great photo can give you so many different looks.
