Wow! I love the textures, the contrasts, and the sharp focus combined with the faded background.

Ju -- Florabella actions are a group of pre-assembled edits for use in Photoshop. Actually, there are many different Photoshop actions available for free or for purchase. Florabella sells some that I really like to use to edit my photos. Here is the link:
