Cool Accidents

A rare day it was today. - to be able to sit all day with no distractions and work solidly on a new collection.

The inspiration came from a burst of spring cleaning energy last weekend. I had purchased some fresh new floral fragrances and silk flowers to brighten up the studio. My new arrangements left a spot on my walls begging for a matching piece of photo based art.

So today I hankered down to play with some still life shots, which carried into my digital darkroom for a little of this and a little of that post production. It was during the beginning stages of this creative recipe mix that I accidently took different images into Photomatrix (HRD software) and quickly discovered the daisy ghosting.

With a few additional tweaks in Lightroom - I had been able to produce this pleasant Floral abstract - all born from an accident.
