The Eye of the Beholder
Day 138

I don't use Photoshop much, but some days you need a little more help than others.

I knew there was a beautiful shot residing somewhere in the mess of the original, but I just couldn't pry it loose until I decided to get out the big guns (remembering my motto: "If it's a tad blurred, pour on a little more in Photoshop and act like you meant to do it!")

This ended up differently than I expected it to, but that's not always bad.

Sony DSC-F717
Gauzian Blur and Diffuse Glow added, as well as color balancing work. And cropping, of course. full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Love the treatment. I like the graininess too.
