Beyond Horizon
About this design:
I wanted to create something in either fuscia or purple color and with the dichroic cab used in this design, I went down the purple path.
It was challenging to get the cab and bead colors to photograph and I ended up taking many shots until I was satisfied. Wonder if this is typical of these colors.

Miannda says:Wow! Gorgeous colors! As a printer/graphic designer, I know that purple is the hardest color to reproduce on paper, not sure if the same applies to photographing purple
