October 2026 - Tulip Trio
Original
About the Image(s)
Found these really interesting tulips in Halifax and shot them with my iPhone. I wanted to make a dramatic trio out of them which meant masking out the three I wanted, flipping them and then using the rest of the image to create an abstract background. Everything done in Luminar.

Hi Rich. These are beautiful tulips and the darker background enhances their color and using other image parts to make the background. flipping the background was extremely helpful. Posted: 10/10/2026 16:35:51
Hi Rich. This really is a gorgeous grouping of tulips and the color and detail you have captured is wonderful. I like your concept of isolating the three blooms, flipping them and editing the background to be less competitive and more abstract. This is a lovely presentation and thanks for sharing it with us!

Nice work. I agree with Bob and Ingrid. To me, the red just didn't go to well as a background so making the colors more compatible was a good idea. Perhaps the left side of the background could be toned down a little but it's a picky point. Posted: 10/21/2026 02:23:03
Hi Rich, these are beautiful and "eye" catching tulips. Your presentation works well and did a great job in minimising the distracting background. Just lovely. Posted: 10/21/2026 10:30:52
Hi Rich,
Greetings my friend.
The final edition from the original image was a nice conversion. I noticed that you have used, a tight frame with a different background. Loved the concept and nothing to add really. Thanks again.
Cheers.
