One Four Challenge March Week 1

This is my photo for this month.  Using Sagelight,  I’m going to try to have this image tell a different story each week.DSCN4074 8x6

First up, I cropped the image.  I added soft focus and a vignette and played with the threshold.  Then I inverted the area at the end of the archway which makes it appear as if it’s night with a person caught in the lights.  To me the overall effect is somewhat threatening.

    1. Hi Robyn – thank you – having a goal I can better evaluate my editing choices, to see if I succeeded – if nothing else it tells me when to stop 😀

  6. Oh wow, what a dramatic shift from the original! The distant figure is suddenly very important to the story. Sagelight??? I will have to Google that…

    1. Hi Sue. I think in most editing programs there is an invert button, but rather than complicated layering and masking I then simply used Sagelights undo brush to remove the invert from the image except at the end of the arch.
