Both images are more or less out of cam - no masks applied in LR. Morning sun came in perfectly through the trees.
Been traveling, and all the prep and planning limiting opportunity. Finally, relaxing at daughter’s in Switzerland, and noticed the shadow/shade foreground framing the lit area. This, as opposed to the full Sun blackberries posted in POTD. Both from the planters lining her rear patio.

Finally got some time to grab some photos. Life has been pretty high maintenance the past couple weeks.

Edited and brightened, but just the roses: if I lighten the whole photo, the yellow is gone

I like the second one. Did you add a vignette to these or process them? I often add vignettes in post, but these seem a bit heavy to me. But...that's just a personal opinion, so take it with a grain of salt. 🙂
What do you mean for vignette?
I cropped both and I would have liked to light them up a little but was afraid to loose the pocket of light
A vignette - a darkening around the edges. Even working within a pocket of light, it seems like the edges the images are way too dark, and done in post processing.
If you didn't do it in post processing, then I think you can lighten the images a little bit.

Very interesting, thanks for the extra lesson. 🌹🙂A vignette - a darkening around the edges. Even working within a pocket of light, it seems like the edges the images are way too dark, and done in post processing.

In the camera App on the iPhone the Vignette tool is the last tool. You can see the dark around the edges after I move the slider all the way over.

FWIW I love vignetting; I might be a little heavy-handed with it. Like the contrast it adds, and the implicit-if-subtle framing.

A tiny origami crane that was made and given to me by a sweet Japanese girl in Kyoto
This morning a breeze from the window made it fly just there, on the carpet.
The significance of the origami crane in Japan has an ancient backstory, and the paper bird was later popularized after one girl named Sadako Sasaki used it to send a powerful and lasting message after Hiroshima. Today, people continue to make and gift origami cranes as symbols of hope and love.
i found this perfectly illuminated bench this morning, in an otherwise cloudy and shadowed area.
on Tower Hill, Prospect Park neighborhood of Minneapolis ... these little cuties were in the dappled light all around
Annie likes to get on top of my desk and being completely black, always looks sinister when the lights are going.
Of course, she *is* sinister, she just doesn't always look it.

Very cute!
I had a black cat, Rififi. Phonetic: all “i” read as “e”
My mom got the name from an old French crime movie . Rififi was very smart and very sweet but when we were coming back home from the summer holidays, she was going into my closet and peeing in one shoe: her way to tell me she didn’t like I went away….it happened twice: first time I didn’t see her and couldn’t be sure it was her, second time was the last one.
I learned to give her a treat and tell her I was sorry to have abandoned her with “strangers “
She never did it again.
