Mysterious by grammyn

Mysterious

I have only a bridge camera and spent my first year shooting lots of sooc because I didn't know how to edit! Since then I have discovered ETSOOI and other post processing techniques that I usually use with a light hand so I decided to try the "Back to Basics" challenge and post occasionally to get back some of those planning skills.
This has a very plaintive quality about it that I like a lot... thanks for joining in with the challenge.

@vignouse Thanks for taking the time to view and comment, Richard! you have probably forgotten more than I will ever know but I do enjoy the challenge!

Very nice! I like the soft quality of the light- and it doesn't look that mysterious to me- rather quite peaceful!

What a wonderful capture. Where is the light coming from? a window ? How did you get the focus so great, if this is a selfie? Terrific selfie

@olivetreeann I think you are right! the dark is what made it mysterious to me.
@linnypinny Thanks Lin! l am glad you like it!
@vstap Sometimes I can get it to work for me. Thanks bunches!
@deb60 Thanks Deb but zero processing on this. Straight out of the camera!
@lesip The light is from my front door and not a selfie so easy to focus on my visitor!
@mikegifford ah, Mike! so kind of you to be so generous with your praise! This is probably just a lucky shot!

Good for you! I've been wanting to join this challenge especially because the dark and mysterious really appeals to me! But so far I haven't! Will have to work on that!
