Manhole Cover, Paris, France
I found this manhole cover near the Eiffel Tower in Paris and loved the shape and design of the cut-outs. The cover was, of course, dirty brown, so I shot it for the pattern and then brought it into Photoshop where I played with both gradient mapping and hue-saturation tools to alter the colors. No rhyme or reason to the technique, just played with various combinations until I found something I thought was striking. From the Beyond Reality Gallery on my site www.jeffwignall.com.
