1. Photoshop
 technique:
 curves
Â
Â
In
 this
 photo
 I
 messed
 around
 with
 the
 curves
 making
 the
 green
 a
 bit
 greener
Â
and
 making
 the
 pink,
 red
 and
 yellow
 in
 the
 flowers
 stand
 out
 more.
 I
 turned
Â
down
 the
 blue
 a
 little
 bit
 and
 move
 the
 green
 a
 bit
 to
 allow
 the
 leaves
 and
 grass
Â
to
 be
 the
 green
 in
 the
 edited
 photo,
 in
 order
 for
 the
 flowers
 to
 stand
 out
 from
 the
Â
greenness
 of
 the
 plants
 around
 it,
 I
 had
 to
 make
 an
 adjustment
 to
 the
 red
 to
 make
Â
the
 green
 compliment
 the
 pink
 flower.

2. Photoshop
 techniques:
 Cropping
Â
Â
I
 cropped
 the
 photo
 so
 that
 the
 image
 is
 in
 the
 rule
 of
 thirds,
 and
 so
 it
 can
 also
Â
show
 more
 detail,
 it
 was
 also
 cropped
 to
 remove
 the
 empty
 space
 on
 the
 right
Â
side
 of
 the
 image.

3. Photoshop
 technique:
 exposure
Â
Â
I
 lowered
 most
 of
 the
 exposure
 down
 so
 that
 the
 flowers
 are
 shown
 with
 much
Â
more
 detail
 then
 the
 unedited
 version,
 it
 makes
 the
 light
 that
 shines
 down
 on
 the
Â
plants
 brighter,
 and
 more
 saturated
 but
 the
 shadows
 look
 much
 better.

4. Photoshop
 technique:
 lens
 flare
Â
Â
In
 this
 image
 I
 needed
 to
 put
 the
 lens
 flare
 in
 a
 place
 that
 makes
 the
 main
 flower
Â
go
 from
 dark
 to
 light,
 so
 I
 put
 it
 to
 the
 furthest
 of
 the
 left
 side
 and
 placed
 it
 near
Â
the
 top
 of
 the
 screen,
 which
 placed
 it
 on
 the
 satellite.
