Grocery Store Flowers
I sharpened the image a bit, then applied Auto White Balance. When the shot doesn't really need anything done with the white balance, it sometimes returns unexpected results.

1. Very cool! So were all of the flowers basically the same color?

The auto white balance caused the enhanced pink and white highlights?

2. They were all the same, just some darker than others. The pinks and whites
Lend a cartoonish/HDR feel.

5. So gorgeous, and so alive. That is a photo that is sale able. I hope you try to sell it.
Sometimes I wonder, what do the really good photographers do with all their photos.

You have the honor, dear Alfredo, to now occupy the center of my laptop as a screen saver. I hope you don't mind. Others have had that same privilege but you are the only one who's now been there twice.

Thank you!
