Stock Photography Protea Pink Ice…  once Photo Media Stock is opening its doors, I will have a contribution with this spectacular flower I shot yesterday in a friend’s garden in Noordhoek, South Africa. Here’s a detail:

Spending the cold and rainy part of the weekend almost entirely on studying Lightroom 3, I ran it through the calibration setting Yorgo prepared for me, adjusted it in the Lightroom Develop section, then eliminated a bright and interfering little branch in Photoshop, gave it a tiny tick of sharpening – and saved it.

The colour is spectacular – there is no other word! I have the Pink Ice Protea in my garden as well, but it’s really pink  – not this flaming magenta.

The Protea Pink Ice -  Protea neriifolia x susannae  -  is said to be the hardiest of the Proteacea family and is a low maintenance plant.

On the other hand, it provides us with beautiful flowers we can adore in Nature – or of course also as a cut and dried flower… which I keep to a minimum. I just love them to radiate and glow outside… but getting a good digital photo – whether for private usage or stock photography – makes us feel even the tiniest of fluffy hairs and lets them come alive in a virtual way for all to admire.

Enjoy the excerpt above!
