Theme: Light up my Life

[Judy Howle]

Having a bit of fun for Valentine's day. The photo was made and processed with my iPhone 6s Plus. I recently bought a lighted bottle at a crafts and antiques mall and I photographed it with a piece of scrapbook paper behind it and used Enlight for the artsy filter work.

This is very creative. I particularly like the transparent bubbles. Did you use a vignette for the dark corners?

[Judy Howle]

Thanks Gary. I used a filter preset in Enlight that had a heavy vignette although the edges were darker already in the photo. I like the bubbles too!

Looks like a psychedelic Valentine's Day!

Sure does Diane!

I like the bubbles too, as well as the effect of motion in the center of the image. Fun!

Judy,

Greetings. For some reason I'm hearing Jefferson Airplane's White Rabbit in the background. ;-) Thanks for posting.

Cheers,

Thanks Wendy, and Michael, I like your comment.

Happy Valentine's Day to you! I like the various shapes and colors. How much of the effect was created by the bottle? I think I'd like the bottle to either be more prominent or not be there at all.

Thanks Anita. Well maybe I overdid the hearts and bubbles Here's another version where the bottle is more prominent. The image you see minus the bubbles and hearts was from one preset in Enlight but I may have tweaked the brightness/contrast a bit. I think it was an analog preset.

I think I like this better. I love the colors and brightness.

Thanks Anita. I can see how this might be more appealing with the bottle showing up more.
