beyond layers challenge

today, i took some time for me...

it may be just a few hours, but oh what a time its been :)

i rescued the yellow boy outside but that is a story for another time...

 

and i finally did some homework

the assignment was to all take the same picture, enhance it any way we wanted and add a quote that brings it all together...

 

 

here is the original:

and here is my version...

i love seeing what other people do with the same image, it fascinates me.

and it inspires me but i can't look until i do my version, otherwise i lose me in the mix.

 

i cloned out a seagull to simplify the image,

i added a layer of soft light,

and luminous texture (kim's),

and then added an action from pioneer woman.

 

it was fun and i am glad to participate again
