Autumn Refracted In a Bottle Stopper

A dull, dull day off work. Went looking for inspiration for OU assignemnt and with the stopper from a decanter, and a very flat battery in the camera, took lots of photos of trees.

This tree is very yellow, but with changing the histogram, hue and clarity (that was the assignment) it now has the iconic colours of autumn. That is cheating in my book!

3 trees, a great effect!

I really like how images are inverted in glass spheres and the colors are perfect for fall.

And it is not cheating, it is faffing around and having fun!

This is brilliant, fav!

[Sally Ings]

Creative and I agree with Sue - it's fun seeing what effects you can create by faffing with the sliders in post production.

[Catherine]

Not cheating! A great image and a great refraction image

It made an excellent lens - and gave you such a nice photo. I like that you can see the whole in the lens

@joansmor down to your recommendation of editting suite. I'm enjoying playing and learning, it's so intuitive!!

[Carole Sandford]

I like this. I’m sure we all thought professionals took excellent photos all the time. When you get to know a bit about photography, yes they do take good photos but I bet a lot of them enhance them or use special effects.
