Hi folks,

Here's my contribution to Helen's latest theme.

Originally taken in colour of course.
Used selective colour effect, cropped all around to make the "plant" off center.

Used some brightness, contrast, saturation, USM and shadows/highlights to enhance it a bit.

Framed using canvas size - this way all EXIF data stays along.

Photo taken at this quarry.

Enjoy it.
Thomas

Effective work and composition Thomas !

Suits very well the theme! Well thought and presented. I love the light here. A bit more sharpeness would have an even better impact in my humble opinion.

Cheers!
Robert

Hello Thomas, I like what you have done here. The plants stands out so sharply and clearly against what now looks like a dark stormy sky.
Good PP work - well done
