I agree there were some great plays last week. It is lots of fun to see what everyone comes up with and for me it’s fun to “play”.

Here is mine for this week:

Here it is. It looks like the original shot is a pretty twilight time image. I thought about adding to that but then went a different way when I couldn’t quite capture the pinks in the sky right.

Increased orange in sky, blue in water
Lightened and increased red on the boat so that it would stand out more against the water.

This is my first time! What are the rules as to the number of submissions? I came up with a couple of ideas.

As soon as I posted by original play, I saw a couple of other things I wanted to do.

I cloned in lights off of the smoke stack and cropped it.

@Jennifer: You can submit more than one play for sure. I’ve done that in the past as well.

These are similar to some of the others. I guess this picture just evokes a sense of nostalgia!

Wonderful plays last week and love the ones this week, too! I’m loving the antiqued versions…it lends itself well to that.

I love the photo of the little girl in the hat on the beach. You should submit some of your photographs to Shutterstock I think you would do really well on there. Basically its a stock photolibrary selling images to designers, everytime your image is downloaded, you make money. As a designer myself I use their images all the time.
