Well, so much for "cheaters never prosper"... Originally shared by Randy MacLeod Preparing carefully to freak-out, getting a glass of water sort of thing. Love the "bride" edit - it could win a photo competition. :) http://hyperallergic.com/272010/badly-photoshopped-photo-wins-nikon-award-and-internet-freaks-out/

Food for Thought :)

Title: The Art of Motherless Invention I posted the full size photo of this to my 500px account; yet, you can't really see the detail and thought I would share this scaled down copy with you all instead. This image is a wider shot on the rustic wheel that was in the "Motherless Invention" photograph. This one I used a "Dream Smoothing" filter by G'MIC for the GIMP editor.

This one was a tough one to edit.  Had a real flat grey tone took some photo filters and color grading to get the rings to stand out.  Not a great composition; yet, it provided a nice learning experience in editing. https://500px.com/photo/137096853/rings-of-time-by-fred-scott-jr?utm_medium=googleplus&utm_campaign=nativeshare&utm_content=web&utm_source=500px

New photograph of mine I got done editing.  The wheel sits behind my house on the retaining wall.  Makes a nice ornament to enjoy from the back porch.  Used some color grading techniques on this one to bring the wheel out from the grass and the leaves. https://500px.com/photo/137973545/motherless-invention-by-fred-scott-jr?utm_medium=googleplus&utm_campaign=nativeshare&utm_content=web&utm_source=500px

The series continue. I hope you are enjoying seeing them. Another image that we created that day. It is all about the harmony of shapes and lines under a single light. www.glamourmakeoverphotography.com
