if it's intended as a study of red lips - then yes it's better without foliage [ though I would still like to see that white/greenish thing removed - yes I'm picky that way ]
if it's intended as a study of a fading rose with its interesting petals - then yes leave the foliage in .
OK - I know - that has not helped

Wonderful day for taking a K-x for a walk you would think
WRONG !!
I have to wait in all day for the council man to come and kill off my 6 wasp nests in my attic

If they do we know who to blame

I could look at that and just look at different individual petals for ages . There's plenty of texture as well.
The only thing I don't like [ sorry about that ] is the teeny bit of white/greenish stuff showing - what is it ? It detracts from the rest .
Congratulations on a worthwhile bit of experimentation [ perhaps one day I will .................... ]

Re photoshop elements, don't be put off by adobe bridge. Just right click the shot in Finder and open with photoshop elements. It will take you straight to the raw converter.
I agree that it's mainly just the blue light cast by the windows causing the 'problem'. You could try reducing the saturation or lightness of blues using the hue/saturation function in photoshop elements, just select blue from the drop down list of colours and move the sliders. The bin being to fans down the blue a bit while keeping the scene looking natural. Can't beat photoshop, jump onto it as soon as you can.
First person who has said that I can go straight from finder to PSE
During the College Course we were made to open Bridge , put the pics we were to work on in that and then go to Elements and this drove me to complete despair . I didn't realise that I could just ignore the dratted Bridge thing .
You may well have solved my 'block'
Once this week [ likely to be rather busy with various things happening ] is over I'll have another go with PSE .

The series that that one is a part of actually have some very very intimate moments in them - everything was actually shot during the service and I was moving around most of the time . I know the Church very well so I knew where to position myself .
Everytime I use the K-x I praise its inbuilt stabilisation - it really works well

we really are a friendly bunch - but we are human and can spit at each other at times . Don't let that worry you

If you think I'm going to take piccies of those nasty stripey stingy things living in my attic - you have another think coming .
SIX wasp nests in one attic are six too many - think of the nasty possibility of wasp fights
Hopefully as they have now been sprayed good and proper that's an end to them - but the next 6 weeks will tell.
And of course since the man has now been the weather has changed back to grey skies , temp has dropped with a wallop Methinks rain is on the way
