Hello to you 🙂 Venturing into the domain of photography I am participating in XingfuMama’s photo challenge. The challenge is simple: take one photo and get creative with it by processing it three different ways.
Here goes:
This is the original. This was taken last month at Kochi harbor in Kerala, India. It was a cloudy cool morning and it was such a treat to watch her grow bigger and bigger as she floated back home. I took it on my Samsung Z fold 2 phone camera. No particular setting.
Err, I can’t help but also post a haiku, or attempt at one, inspired by this image. Haiku, as you may know, captures one or two moments by using clear and vivid images. A haiku, consisting of a phrase and a fragment, is an unfinished poem – the readers interpret what it means by putting the images together. Do share your thoughts and interpretations 🙂

This is the Pen and Wash style availabe in the phone itself.
This is the Watercolor style. Earlier we used to attempt watercolors (not that I ever could!) based on photos and now its the reverse. Fascinating stuff.
For this one, instead of the Styles function, I tried to play around with contrast, exposure, shadow, sharpness etc.
On second thoughts, the version one and two look quite similar, don’t they?
So, what’s the verdict? Suggestions? Tips?
Thanks for visiting. Have a super day.
I like Pen and Wash best 🙂

I liked the water colour,all calm and serene. In contrast my favourite picture is the last one.The blue and grey contrasting colours gave the appearance of a storm brewing.
