Just trying something a little different today.
This is the photo that I wanted to use for Justine’s Eclectic Corner #6, where she posted a lovely piece of a story as a prompt for us to submit some writing or a photograph in response. One part of her writing struck me – she wrote about an easel which was devoid of colour, waiting for some splash or other to brighten it up. So, this photo is what I came up with. I thought the plant was rather nice, so decided to desaturate a section to look like a big brushstroke or two. It’s a feature I had not found before in LightRoom so it was a learning experience for me. Justine – my apologies for being so late to the party!
So, since I missed it, I am checking this in to Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic where you can share your work with other photography enthusiasts. As usual, I used my trusty Olympus OMD EM5 camera, with the 60mm macro lens (120mm equivalent) at f/2.8, 1/500s and ISO200.
