Day 236: Painterly Silk

2026-09-30Hello!If I had not insisted on experimenting with this photo, I might have thrown it out. And now, it's one of my favorite images.Hanging in my room is a bit of watercolor artwork that I purchased on the used market. It combines streaks and splotches of color on a white canvas, and it has levels of detail and texture that I can't understand. These splotches of colors in a photograph remind me of it, and I love it.By inverting the colors in post processing, I can take a simple snapshot of garden plants into a dreamy bit of abstract photography. I tweaked the brightness, but the color was a simple button inverting the colors in editing. Thank you for visiting this blog!
