Afterglow



After the glow of the noonday sun,
After the day its course has run,
After the glare and bustle and heat,
There comes a peace that is calm and sweet.


The fiery sun sinks low to rest,
Mid flaming clouds, far in the west:
Then softly, gently, stealing slow,
Comes on the golden after glow


               :  :  :

The sunrays enlightened the tulips today,
like they were glowing from inside out ...

I took a close up picture with the external Olloclip-lens with my iPhone.
Adding 3 layers of the photo on top of one another with the Blender App, I acheived the feeling of continuity and depth. I wanted to add a detail in the middle, with another photo layer in the Blender App - that detal was to be the pure, first leaves of spring.

Thereafter I added in PS Kim Klassen's new texture Present, together with Serenpidity & Sunshine from  Photo Veil Collections from Love That Shot, and Kim's Music and Script brush.

                     :   :   :

Farewell to tiresome toil and care.
All nature kneels in silent prayer,
While the soft rays dimmer, dimmer grow
In the mellow, roseate, afterglow.

  9. Hi Nina, So very beautiful! I can get lost in macro images, they amaze me. Flowers I usually walk right past without taking a good look, become works of art with details I never knew existed. Your processing is wonderful.

  12. Thanks for stopping by and leaving your kind comment under my latest post about the 'almond bloom', Nina.
    Obviously you are a fan of picture editing by textures. That's something that is still 'strange' to me. But I'm working on this... ;-)
    Enjoy a hopefully great weekend,
    Uwe.
