May Photo of the day. I have made it through 2 months now and working on my third in the photo of the day challenge! I will do my best to get a new shot every day. I am going to bring my Canon Powershot Pro1 with me to work and my D200 in the evening so hopefully I can find something worth wild to post for a daily shot. I am enjoying this challange as this is really streching my abilties.

I decided to do something different tonight. I did not have a shot I was happy with and I have been wanting to do some more work with this gradient method I learned from Gerry (Dreamhat). So we have tonight's shot of the variegated roses that I brought into photoshop and worked in layers. This is an easy one to do, only 3 layers. I took the background layer and applied a gradient mask, adding a grey point to get the effect I wanted. I then took the background copy and moved it to the top and using an inverted layer mask opened up the leaves in the background. I then dropped the opacity to 18% to give just a hint of green to this B&W shot. 3rd layer is my copyright.
