“Red, Black and White”

The title , “Red, Black and White”, should really be “Heart of a Cowboy”. It grew out of a ‘Honey do’ – my wife was re arranging the living room. As I moved this, that, the other – the other, this and that – I noticed a white cowboy hat on top of a book case. Just under, on a different shelf, was an electric rose. I thought, Hmm, interesting. I put the hat on the same shelf as the flower but, it didn’tr work. So, I tried elevating the hat. That worked. I previewed the image in color and black and white. Black and white won out and it became part of my black and white portfolio.

Then one day, my wife was looking at it and said ” that would look better with a colored rose.” Well, I cleared the shelf, lit the rose, set up lighting to duplicate the original lighting and shot the rose. Next came Photoshop. I hope you like the result. You can order a copy or view it in full resolution by visiting: www.propicts4u.com  .
