Lens-Artists Photo Challenge: #154 One Picture Two Ways

A single picture can be presented in several ways as well as a single subject can be photographed from different angles and in various lighting situations.  This week Tina challenges us to show a edited photo along with a different way it could be viewed using additional editing. 

This first picture is of a lovely flower bed which lines the path to Marginal Way in Ogunquit, Maine.  These lush, colorful flowers are a stark contrast to the rugged cliffs straight ahead beside the Atlantic Ocean.

Here, Photoshop software was used in  an artsy manner – swirls were added and colors blended and softened.

An favorite arrangement of graceful tulips.

By cropping the left side of this image a very different picture is created, the tulips take center stage along with their shadows playing on the wall.  

A plant in our garden which never fails to delight us – for fun and a completely different look, the second image below shows how a textured background can make all the difference in the world.

This local artist was painting from the cliff not far from where the first flower pictures were shown at the beginning of the blog.  It was a misty morning with the Atlantic Ocean swirling away below, pounding on the rocks.

After initially editing this in Photoshop (above), Topaz software was used to offer a different and more contemporary look.
