Rainbowdelion - Dandelion Set VII - a photo on Flickriver

Dandelion.

This is part of a set of variants of an image I took not long ago while walking in the local lanes with the little camera.

I published the first version a couple of days ago as Inner Secrets as a “proper” monochrome. There are two more proper versions in the set today, and the rest are manglings.

I hope you enjoy some of them, anyway. They are always fun for me to do because I’m never sure where I’ll get and ideas come to me along the way. Not that all the ideas are worth much!

This version is for Sliders Sunday.

This is the straight colour version, firstly gradient mapped and then a lot of play with the Curves filter in LAB mode affecting colour and luminosity, and an HSL filter. Sharpening with High Pass and a light vignette and other messings about...

As ever for the Sliders Sunday sets I’ll publish a link to the in-camera original in the first comment so you can see how far we came.

Thanks for taking the time out of your day to look at my images. I appreciate it, and hope you enjoy them. Happy Sliders Sunday :)
