Most of my lavender is gone - but this one is still standing! Standing up to winter, rain, winds, digging squirrels. Quite amazing.
Here's the recipe:
layered original photo with kk_bestill in linear burn at 47%;
levels adjustment on the texture only;
added the quote;
layered with kk-hughes in soft light at 100%;
levels adjustment on the texture only.

Das sieht toll aus, gefällt mir :)
Lavendel mag ich sowieso.
Ich fange auch gerade an, mit Bildern und Texturen zu spielen :))

So pretty! Lovely texture work too!
Lavender is one of my very favorite scents - pure and clean. Your picture of the last lavender spike is perfect! The green background, richly textured, really sets off the lavender, so sharply focused. Beautiful quote and lovely sentiment - appreciation for the last of the season.
Lavender is so beautiful in each phase of it's life. You captured this one wonderfully, love the texture work.
Gosh! I can't believe you've still got lavender. It's beautiful. I love lavender and we've tried but failed to grow it many times in our garden. Very pretty editing and photo.
Brave little plume...
And I love your texture work as well.
Gorgeous texture!
It's such a lovely composition...beautifully textured just the way I like! I have used this quote as a theme for awhile, particularly as the landscape becomes rather dreary.
Lovely work, Carola. Lavender is one of my favorites, and this plant is so sweet.
this effect is wonderful!
So lovely, how nice it must be to still have blossoms.
Absolutely stunning!
Einfach wunderbar, ein Kunstwerk. Hab eine gute Zeit vor Weihnachten.

This is just gorgeous, Carola! :) The only thing in blooms here in Scotland were roses, but after today's sleet and now the frost, I think they will all die... thanks for sharing this beauty! :)
Wow, this is a lovely textured image.
Beautiful. Wonderful colors. The background coloring really is wonderful for the lavender.
Love the quote, love the photo! Hugs ;o)
Great picture!
The quote works well with the picture. For someone who clicks a few Photoshop buttons it's hard to follow your technical info Carola but I'm trying - honest.
How lovely...and you know I love lavender! Happy holidays, Diane
The quote is perfect for this « brin de lavande.” I don’t understand the recipe though, too technical.
