Day 7 of my colored PASTELS.

I had this one picked out for my Centered Composition challenge entry, but did another shoot yesterday, and have entered a different shot.

I thought this one was a little 'to pretty' for the DPC voters.

I love the centered composition and the pastel colours of this image very much.

Enjoy.......

I just realized that this could be a color on color..... which I am doing in the second week of Colors.....

This is very lovely, I love the stained glass texturing and hues of purple in the candle. The shape of each of the petals of the candle really draw interest to study and almost to reach out and feel.. Excellent lighting, almost makes the petals transglusent.

I also really like the background. The texture and color of it really adds to the overall photo and reall catches your eye in the thumb nail.

The colours certainly do work very well. I like the way the 'frame' of the flower is the real defining point between the two shades. Beautiful work!

This is really lovely! The color and details are wonderful, it is a very calming image to me though I can't explain why :-) Bet this would be cool in low light with the candle lit as well!

Oh yes. A beautiful sea of one of my most favorite colors. And a candle. It makes me feel all warm and cozy inside. I bet this would look really cool with the candle lit too :)

Sweet shades of lavender...I think it would have done well in "centered"

Think this is beautiful.

I would have taken the holder and the candle on a plain backgroun - but then thankfully we're all different - GRIN!

Wow, sherpet you really did a nice job on this one. I just love the various shades of pale purple missed in with other colors. Great centered composition.
