K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge – Metal

13 Comments

As I was wandering around Kingston on the weekend, looking for metal, (because that’s the theme of this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge) I came across a gate with some nasty looking needles. It’s like they put them in there just to make a point… so to speak.

The first is close to the original. I washed out a bit of the colour to age it a little:

But then I thought what the hell. I just got a new phone today and the camera came with a few editing goodies, so why not make it look like I took the photo when the place was built?

What do you think?

    It’s always interesting to see what the different settings make a picture look like.

    Nicely vintage, Linda. I’m certain about that (I’m not sitting on the fence)

    I think you have done a fine job editing the picture. It captures the true horror of those sword/spike things in a picture. No words needed. Creepy!

    The first is a walk around the neighborhood. The second is looking through my grandmother’s photo album. 🙂 Nicely done, Linda!

    Excellent work, Linda. Hard to choose between the original and the rework. Both look pretty good to me. Thanks for joining the challenge.

    Both are good – they have very different feelings,
