A Delicate Way

“The Bhakti path winds in a delicate way. On this path there is no asking and no not asking. The Ego simply disappears the moment you touch him. The joy of looking for him is so immense that you just dive in, and coast around like a fish in the water. If anyone needs a head, the lover leaps up to offer his.” ~ poetry by Kabir

Mahalo sweetheart. It is not supposed to be rotated. I have tried everything and for some reason it is uploading portrait style and I don’t like the look of it. It is supposed to be landscape style with the larger bloom on the left of the image, not on the bottom. I don’t what to do, I tried making a copy of my original and rotating, and then replacing the one uploaded and it still looks like this.

The delight of white! Truly a wonderful capture friend!!!...)o(
Sharon Mau replied

Mahalo nui loa. I am happy you like it! This was heavily worked in post processing. I used the lasso tool to create the depth of field soft focus around the edges. I adjusted the Curves and reset the white balance, then I made adjustments in the Colour Balance and fine tuned the temperature and hue. I tried to remove as much of the red and blue as possible. Then I adjusted the Contrast, actually pulling the contrast down into the negative. Then I ajdusted the Highlights/Midtones/Shadows and pulled down the highlights, left the Shadows as they were and deepened the Midtones. I am happy you like the results.

I have had that before as well and there was nothing I could do about it, i think it has to do with the original picture, did you take the original portrait like this?/ Or have you rotated it with the croptool???....i love it though! Hey you can ask people viewing irt sideways! LOL!!! XXX!

I love the softness of this image Sharon. It’s like a pleasant dream!

It’s very soft and pretty, Sharon. Even in the vertical, I think it works well. I like how the flowers are all tucked in tightly together and the white is so clean and classy.

beautiful work Sharon ~ i really like it
have you tried going back into your external harddrive (if this is where the original file is) rotate it in the harddrive, then upload it from there into a computer file folder in your photo program. i’ve done that before and it worked for me.

or you can simply rotate your image where it is currently located so that even tho in your foto file it is not the correct rotation you desire, but then when you upload it here it will show up correct.

try rotating it one turn to the right :)) then re-upload and it should appear with the larger bloom on the bottom left and in a landscape position :))
