Mandarin Orange Monday ~ Week 3

My sister asked me to come photograph her beautiful 'orange' dahlia for this weeks post

but in the back of my mind I think I was set on playing with gradient maps

to create 'orange' in a couple of recent photos.

The building was altered with a gradient map and the sky was altered with a gradient, masking out the building.

The stairs and building were rendered using the gradient map.

Promise, I'll start looking out for orange on my travels with a camera!

(But I do love playing with gradients and the gradient map!)
