Either I'm missing something. . .because I do not see the original. . .or Prosaic has seen this elsewhere perhaps?  The color change is interesting. . .vibrant. . .yes. . .and. . .the play adds a surrealism to this that leaves one wondering. . .

Nas,

This is interesting, well done. What software did you tinker in to create this effect?

>N> Thanks P

You are most welcome.

>N> Don't laugh but the title of the photo "ducking" was a typo that I was too lazy to change.

Me? laugh?  Roll Eyes Grin Cheesy Cool

>N> I really like purples and mauves (my favourite colours, yellow being my least favourite), far more interesting than the muddy colours of the original.

ROFL! Yellow is my fav colour, with purple and green close seconds. 

>N> I was playing with effects and would probably not be able to reproduce the image again.  It was fun messing around though.

No, I do not keep records so cannot reproduce imags precisely. But "messing around" does give one the eneral idea.

Broccoli - not the usual vegetation found in Hainault Forest.

Ah! More of a brussles sprouts' wood is it?

Thanks, nas,

p.

Nas! Eh up me duck,

I really like th way in which you have created a negative which converted it to blue. The vignette adds well to the scene and does, indeed, spotlight it.

From the obvious image (Good title - "ducking") taking his constitutional, we have something more distant, more alien. In the original the pond looks very drab and ordinary but here we have something alive and vibrant.

I especially like the electric-purple veg. (Not broccoli perchance?)

Cheers, p.

Seeing Prosaic's tunnel vision picture, reminded me of one of mine that I'd played around witha while ago.
