I stumbled across a garden with hundreds of beautiful roses all still living but beginning to whither and I thought it was really quite beautiful. I didn't really know what to do with these images, so I tried out[user]raz[/user]'s overlays tutorial. All C&C is appreciated!
Post-processing:
-darkened and blurred background
