experimental: blueberries

Our friend Rosemary, a keen gardener, invited us to a little look/photoshoot around her garden.

The blueberry bush is crowded with green fruit so I took a shot and firstly, converted it to b&w, then to this colour reminscent of what the ripe blueberries will look like.

(Converted with 'negative' on FastStone.)

And I've just had the idea of making this second album my experimental album for the month of June: to use different settings and scenes on the camera and also different processing methods on my software.

I love your processing and colour the blueberries look like tiny lanterns with the light catching them.FAV

What a fun shot, Hazel. Even when I've tried taking photos of ripe blueberries, I've been disappointed with the results. This is nice! BTW, ours are still green, too!

[Pat Knowles]

Great idea to keep experiments in a special album Hazel...I think you should also chronicle how you got the result as you will forget!
Great start here!
