Nature's love...


We've had a bit of interesting weather the past week or so - snow, really cold temps, lots of rain, more cold.  Despite these challenges, it's been possible to get out and do some photography every once-in-awhile. This is a photo from October, and I'm posting it here to demonstrate what I've been learning in Photoshop. I set a goal for myself to learn how to use this powerful, but very confusing program. This was an exercise in masking a photo to add drama.  I'll post the original below, but my idea was to emphasize just the beautiful geometry of this trio.  The original photo was ok, but the background wasn't all that great. I think the black background works well, though.
