Hi Cyber

Thanks for adding my upload to the Friday theme. I like the concentric rings in the water. Superb pp work, with good color & sharpness. Tfs!

Salam CM. What a stunning contribution to the theme! Your PP work is beyond my reach. Excellent sharpness of the clasping hands and fingers popped out well of the ripples. The soft image of the couple is so cleverly manipulated in this excellent shot. Well done and best regards. Jusni

Hi Cyber,
Just brilliant, your PP skills have given us a realistic image. The ripples and reflections are very well done.
This is the standout image of the theme.

Hello Cyber


Beautiful entrance for the theme
I like your pp, mainly
for the creativity of the waves in the water in turn of the fingers and of the beautiful image of the girl to the bottom as reflexes.
superb contribution! amazingly done!

Hi Cyber,

This is an excellent PP work. I'm glad you have provided a detail note on how you did it. Now I learn another new lesson from TL. What can I say? This photo definitely suits the theme and it is a very beautiful photo.

hello CM

Nice pp effect, although I am not a fan of pp work.

Very interesting wedding style that you have captured with the painted fingers. Nice rings! The marking on the fingers is for what purpose?

tfs, bill

This is VERY different, very interesting! The marking on the fingers is really unusual! Would love to know more about that! Excellent pp work, something very different!

Merhaba myfriend Cyber..
Very enteresting shot and work..superb colors and detail..bravo.selamlar..

interesting experiment. Well done. Best regards, Daniel

Beautifully creative stuff here mate. The ripple effect is breathtaking, as is the selective blurring here.
Not just beautifully done technically, but also an inspiration to the sort of ideas that can be achieved.
Compositionally this works so well too, placement of the faces, placement of the fingers.
Terrific shot mate
Rew

Very nice post processing Cyber and thanks for the notes. You have some very nice creative work in your gallery.
