   • I will think about it. Mostly I just took the exposure to the lighter side. Then darkened the highlights and whites so they weren’t burned out. There was more but that was main parts. 🙂

8. All very different photos. I actually think the first one is my favourite which is odd since it has nothing to do with gardening. It is just such a romantic image with the antique suitcase and the parasol. Where did you take it?
   I think I have peaked too early and am also having difficulty finding pastel photos. I clearly prefer bright flowers, but I can find a few I think.
