I also LOVE how you can see the reflection of the paint on the petals.]]> 2023-03-31 11:34:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539762962 ggianopulos https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539764473 For the final image im choosing, I chose one where I really wasn't proud of the image until I edited it. I love how close I got to the flower, and I love the reflection of the light bending because of the water. I also love how in focus the center is]]> 2023-03-31 11:36:16 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539764473 gkelly37 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539769612 I love how this flower has so many petals and the sharp focus on the flower. ]]> 2023-03-31 11:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539769612 gkelly37 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539770622 I love the selective focus on the little white flower coming out of the water but how you can still see thta big flower in the water. ]]> 2023-03-31 11:43:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539770622 kdewees3 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539771607 I loved this photo because I barley used any paint and it spread in a cool way. I also like how vibrant I made the colors because they really pop with the background.]]> 2023-03-31 11:44:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539771607 gkelly37 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539771668 I love this photo because you can still see the colors, they are just dulled. The editing give it a haunted effect which I like]]> 2023-03-31 11:44:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539771668 kdewees3 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539773913 I liked how the colors turned out. Before taking the photo I added a little red and purple paint to give the water color. I also like how the blue paint is almost like falling through the yellow flower. ]]> 2023-03-31 11:47:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539773913 sdykes4 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539775728 2023-03-31 11:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539775728 kdewees3 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539777065 I chose this photo because I liked how the light from the back shined in. At first I was going to take this photo without added more paint. But I think it looks pretty cool with the paint falling ind of towards the center of the flowers.]]> 2023-03-31 11:50:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539777065 sdykes4 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539778119 2023-03-31 11:51:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539778119 sdykes4 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539781345 I love this photo because I got the exact moment before the flower was completely consumed by the paint and where the paint fell down. the colors are also cool because of the contract between a red and a yellow.]]> 2023-03-31 11:55:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539781345 rileymay32 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539781480 This was one of my favorites because of how clear both of the colors are. I got them right before they got mixed together and the lighting adds a cool effect to the flowers hanging upside down.]]> 2023-03-31 11:55:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539781480 rileymay32 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539783496 This is one of my favorites because of how interesting the picture is. Instead of the flower itself I put focus on the stems in the middle and the splotchy orange ink meshes very well with the yellow background.]]> 2023-03-31 11:57:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539783496 rileymay32 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539785424 I really like the ink color that it coming onto this flower. The splash covers parts of the flower but not all of it. The different shades of the light blue work very well together.]]> 2023-03-31 11:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539785424 aalmonte15 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539806247 I like this photo because of the atmosphere. It's hazy but clear at the same time; the flower is lost in the ocean, slowly sinking.]]> 2023-03-31 12:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539806247 spreyharbaugh https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539807135 I absolutely love the colors in this photo and how the flower is floating. I like that though there's heavy backlight, the front of the flower is still clear and not too dark.]]> 2023-03-31 12:21:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539807135 spreyharbaugh https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539809760 The light in this photo is primarily coming from one side. I like how this outlines the details of the smaller flowers next to the big one.]]> 2023-03-31 12:23:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539809760 aalmonte15 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539810551 I love how the paint and lighting contrast in this photo. Everything blended together all at once, creating this beautiful mess of color.]]> 2023-03-31 12:24:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539810551 spreyharbaugh https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539813100 The paint in this photo is super sharp and looks like it's moving in a cool way. I like how the rest of the paint is flowing out of the flower like a misty waterfall.]]> 2023-03-31 12:26:55 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539813100 aalmonte15 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539813609 This photo is a little more dark and tense than my others, but that's what makes it my favorite. ]]> 2023-03-31 12:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539813609 jgoodwin76 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539826317 In this image, the lack of color and the paint slithering through the water adds a sinister look. The creepy paint that is only seen in the very top reaching the flower as the image is taken adds a very cool imaginary effect I think.

]]> 2023-03-31 12:39:51 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539826317 jgoodwin76 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539826690 I really liked how the vision of this image came out exactly how I wanted. I put green in so that it looked like the vines of the flower and then followed it up with a lot of red to look like the rose's actual petals. I also like how water droplets were always showing on the rose in this project.

]]> 2023-03-31 12:40:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539826690 jgoodwin76 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539827326 I think that this one is my favorite shot. For my final flower setup, I had a few people add all six colors into the vase, which I think turned out magnificent. The colors are all battling to reach the flower and the vibrance with the background colors is amazing.

The paint looked like raindrops. ]]> 2023-03-31 12:43:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539830456 nhodges13 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539831423 I love the mix of blue and purple in this photo. I think the purple looks like smoke or a tornado.

Took a lot of cropping to get this image, but I am pretty proud of it. ]]> 2023-03-31 12:44:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539831585 nhodges13 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539832322 I love the way the paint explodes around this bouquet of flowers. Sometimes using more force to push the paint out made a cool effect.]]> 2023-03-31 12:45:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539832322 jgray196 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539833840 I had to remove a LOT of bubbles from this image, so that was certainly a learning experience. I think the final product came out pretty cool, I like that it isn't just straight-on. ]]> 2023-03-31 12:46:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539833840 jgray196 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539836651 Once again, lots of work to get bubbles and smudges out of this photo. I wish the background was a bit more of a vibrant white! I could do it, but I blame getting up at 4 yesterday for why I didn't have the energy to do that. ]]> 2023-03-31 12:48:51 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2539836651 rhals1 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540019834 I like how the paint is very wispy around the flowers. I like the vibrant colors and the way it looks like the purple is flowing out of the center of the flower almost like smoke.]]> 2023-03-31 15:15:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540019834 rhals1 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540031850 I like the way the lights I was using make the paint look the same color as the flowers. I like the way it's falling off the flower, and there's both wispy paint, and more solid pieces of paint. ]]> 2023-03-31 15:25:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540031850 rhals1 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540039572 Most of the photos I took were super vibrant, but I used less light on this one and I like how the colors are a bit more muted. I like the texture in this photo, of the purple flower and the paint, and I'm happy with how the green is dripping down the stem of the flower and blends in.]]> 2023-03-31 15:32:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540039572 anaislot https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540085059 There are so many components of this photo that I love! The dramatic contrast of lighting casts a diagonal shadow of total light and total darkness. I love how the light holds this natural symmetry that is both dynamic yet unembellished. I think that the texture is very interesting as well, and truly stands out!]]> 2023-03-31 16:13:51 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540085059 anaislot https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540092691 I enjoy the gossamer quality of the paint in this photo. It is a high contrast, low-exposure photo, but the points of light and dark still blend seamlessly and I enjoy how the composition holds a sense of fluid movement.]]> 2023-03-31 16:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540092691 anaislot https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540096224 I loved staging this photo! I made a Frankenstein-esque flower by prodding a rose and crysanthemum bud into a lily stem with the intent to capture an off-kilter, bizarre image. ]]> 2023-03-31 16:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540096224 dlee188 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540206149 2023-03-31 18:22:55 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540206149 dlee188 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540207424 This picture really shows the details of the flower. Having the center in strong focus gives me love and soul vibes. How important they both are. ]]> 2023-03-31 18:24:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540207424 dlee188 https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540208124 2023-03-31 18:25:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kplows2/flowerlab_spring23/wish/2540208124
