Steve’s Snap & Zap Challenge: Lilacs

This week Steve has asked for nature in his challenge:

For each Snap & Zap I will suggest a new theme so take a new photo or use an existing photo and edit it with any software you like, so…

1. Create a new post showing the original
2. What edits have you made?
3. What software/techniques have you used?
4. Link back to the current week’s page

The theme for this “Snap & Zap…” is Nature.

So I found this photo of some lilac blooms.  I choose this one as the details are rather lost due to me shooting up towards the sky and the light blue sky fooled the sensors.

So I added some drama in Snapseed.

Then the HDR nature filter.

And blurred around the edges to focus on the flowers.

Then for a bit of fun I went to ArtWorks comic filter.

Then my final stop was with Photoshop Express to add a spring filter to soften the comic affect.

And finally I added a white vignette to really get rid of the unwanted leaves to the left.

Thanks for visiting.
