Splash / Turquoise {Nurture Photography}

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I enjoyed playing with my turquise scarf while taking these photos. I started with attaching the scarf to my camera, greatly inspired by Kristi's tutorial How to Create Etheral, Color-Infused Photos Using Scarf. While trying to attach the scarf, I was captured by the way the texture of the scarf was being highlighted. I started to wave the scarf with my left hand in front of the flowers, while I held the camera in my right hand taking pictures...
