The Response: Tiny Oceanscape — Jessica

The kids had the day off because of the HUGE snowstorm that hit the DC area overnight. Oh wait you didn’t hear about that? Yeah, me either, but nonetheless they had the day off. So I took the day off and spent some time looking at abstract photography. One particular artist that I found inspiring was creating “imagined landscapes.” That’s what I tried to do here – with a base photo of a clear plastic bag backlit by the umbrella and shot with the Edge 80. Then I used several different gradient map layers in photoshop to add the color. Finally put it back into lightroom to do the final exposure/contrast/color balance detail.
