Black-Eyed Susan with Insect #2, 1/2010
A new processing of a picture I posted last summer, where the both the flower and insect were red, this version is an attempt to look like a Fresson print. Unlike the previous version, the colors are basically accurate, except the insect has some extra red smudged on.
Technical: Nikon D700, Nikkor 24-85mm f2.8-4, ISO 200, 85mm @ f/4.0 @ 1/80s, macro mode, handheld. RAW file processed in Lightroom 2.6 to crop and apply Nikon Landscape camera calibration, the edited in Nik Dfine to reduce noise. Nik Vivenza was used to splash red on the insect. Finally I added noise back for a faux-Fresson effect using Nik Color Efex Pro.
