Orchid for Mono - Color - Sepia

in #monocolorsepia5 years ago

This is my second attempt to write this post, let's see if i can finish it or have to redo everything again because the app crashes and there's no autosaver to save your work. It's not exactly fun when your work disappears in a second and there's nothing you can do about it.

Later edit: this is the third time I'm trying to create my post. If you can read this, it means I've succeeded and also that I'm very angry!

So, this is a #monocolorsepia post in which I'm going to show you the three versions of a photo.

This time I've chosen to make the flower darker and the background lighter because I think it looks better this way. I've tried the other version with the darker background and lighter flower but it wasn't looking great.

The sepia doesn't look so good, no matter what you do with it.

And this is the original with my favorite blue filter.

Thank you for your support.

A good friend of mine told me to compose the post in a normal editor than post it with the app. However, further edits to be done in the app. 😉
I will go with the b&w edit. It has a....joyful sorrow. 😍

Thank you for your smart advice 😁 up until now the app was ok, today was the first day that I had these problems but I'm smarter now.
So you like the black and white 😀

Yeap, the monochrome edit is absolutely wonderful. It remind me of the struggles of this poor orchid. 😂

Don't mention it! It gave me the headache for a whole year and still don't know what's happened or why. I'm still guessing. After the blooming period is over, I'd like to move her in another room to get used to the light conditions till the next blooming. It's a bit risky but it should work as orchids are moved from greenhouse to supermarkets and then to different homes and still survive. Maybe I'm not lucky and I was given a fussy one 😁🤔

Orchids do love sun. At least mine. I tend to move them from the direct sunlight (as recommended) but they disagree. 🙂
However, I thing I found the perfect spot for them (they keep blooming since I moved them): a window sill where the sunlight is filtered by the trees. Sunny and warm during the cold seasons, shady and cool during summer.
Maybe yours needs a pot change? Or some fertiliser?

You already know what I'm gonna say.... right? :D

😁 How can I not? I know you for a few years and also known a couple of things about you. Things like you don't like monochromes, sweets, food etc. 😛

Hmmm... it seems you're talking about another Luz!

Yes, most likely she's your twin sister :))
