In the moat

by Blaze

The moat of this château gets little light and what there was was horribly flat ! So I used a texture to try to lift it a little.

I really like the effect - how did you get it? (I've only got PS elements - and frankly only know the basics. )

"...little light and what there was was horribly flat !"
Your attention has made for a lovely subtle photograph imo- you have succeeded in bringing out the latent quality of this intriguing scene, by introducing subtle colour & texture enhancement

Thank you very much, Duncan and Giulio

I know that this sort of pp is not everyone's cup of tea but you can rescue a shot that is dull or even slightly out of focus ! But then I really enjoy doing it

Lovely treatment - definitely a 'work of art'

Looks just like a watercolour ?

Best regards

I agree, love this type of image, when done well like this
