Thanks so much for your comments...

This wash out look, kind of desaturated is a technique I work when I have flowers with a very difficult color, like purple, red, or when the background of the picture doesn't match well.
I make a sepia version of the flower, and then blend it to color mode and reduce opacity. Then work with contrast and there it is.

At the beginning of the month, we had already temperatures between 13 and 17 degrees. Sorry, to know that you in Sweden are still with cold weather.

A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art.
