Winter Brightness — BrightSquares Apr 13 and One-to-Three Photo Processing
Hi all 😃 My entry for Becky’s April BrightSquares & the SquirrelChase’s April Challenge.
Seemed an obvious to combine the two challenges in the one post. I’ve done some very basic editing on this one, using Apple’s embedded photo editing software.
The first edit is a basic square crop, normal way up & inverted.
For the next edit, I dropped the light to it’s lowest setting. A lot of detail in the shot is lost, but the colours really come into their own with a rich contrast between the blue & yellow.
The opposite, this time. I ramped the light setting right up; the colours wash out to a degree, but the foreground detail in Lensy & the ice covered log he’s sat on become discernible.
Trying something different this time — I’ve desaturated shots before to give a washed out look, but never single colours. For this one I desaturated all the colours apart from blue to give a colder feel to match the sub zero temperature that this was shot in. The difference is quite subtle, hence the slider (the left hand shot is the original).

Bright Light in a Lensball — Bright Squares
Hi all 😃 My entry for Becky’s April BrightSquares.
I think I prefer the unropped version which I’ve put up as the header image!
Light and Dark — Lens-Artists Challenge #138
Hi all 😃 My entry for this weeks challenge, set by Amy: Natuarl Light.
My favourite natural light is in the dawn; with the greatest contrast between light & dark. The same can be said for dusk, but I’m very much a morning person!

One-to-Three Photo Processing Challenge — March 2021
Hi all 😃 My first entry for theSquirrelChase challenge.
All my editing for this post was done using Photo Focus & Splash Colour Pro. This was an App I got free to replace my previous Colour Strokes App which is no longer around.
I’ve gone for another lensball shot for today’s editing fun 😃
A Photo a Week Challenge: Faded
Hi all 😃 My entry for Nancy’s A photo a week challenge: Faded.
I agree with Nancy that a faded look can work well with flowers. I also looked at other vibrant pics I’d taken for other posts & faded them. The result seems a bit lack lustre. I’ve done all my shots as sliders so you can form your own opinions; faded or not!
These first shots are all flowers.
…and now some non floral fades.
For the floral shots, It’s hard to choose, but I think the faded look works well with wildflower posy & the dandelions. For the non floral ones, I definitely prefer the vibrant colours, but that was the reason for those shots in the first place. That being said, I do like the faded lensball landscape; to me it gives a much colder feel to the shot.
