Day 42 – Fading Hydrangea

Hydrangea

One of the realities of a 100 days project is that my motivation ebbs and flows. It’s pretty far on the ebb side right now. I decided to take a stab at photographing my fading hydrangea with the Velvet 85. That was all fine until I went out in my yard and realized that in two weeks the weeds have totally taken over again. I have volunteer chores coming at me from all directions, I have to go to the coast next week and check off September for the coast project and I just signed up for a new online color theory class. I just want to go back to France!

So, whine over, I processed this by adding a high pass filter though truth be told I don’t think the focus is quite in the right place. Should have taken out the tripod I guess. I then added a texture which really softened the image in a good way. I guess I would give this one a B. I’m not 100% happy with it but it’s not bad. Now off to pull weeds.
