Sorry to all for the lateness of my post. I haven't been getting much photography done, little bits of creative work indoors as it has been very cold. We have been having repairs done at home and we have a way to go yet, all good though jobs needed doing are getting done. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New year. I will probably be on and off but hope to catch up as much as I can.
For my offering for Super Saturated Sunday today I thought I would take an innocuous, unprepossessing photograph (of which I have a vast collection) and quickly turn it into some lurid faux Modern Art that might vaguely emulate the kind you see for sale in galleries for tens of thousands of pounds.
This is a picture of bubbles in the frozen water in a broken mug in my garden taken at the end of December. (For a more normal version of another image taken at the same time see flic.kr/p/2kpGhPy ).
It was developed and processed in Affinity Photo, but the fancy stuff done using Nik Color Efex. The bulk of the effect was due to solarisation combined with a bi-colour filter to create more of a colour gradient across the image, a technique I have used often for this sort of overcooked colour from nothing approach.
A total stack of eight or nine filters was used (it was playtime after all) with some contribution from things like glows and soft focus, selective contrast and graduated ND filter effects. (If you’d like the preset I made from this do ask :) ).
So that was the first twenty minutes dealt with so what should I do with the rest?
Well, I decided to extend the gallery metaphor and make the work look a bit as if it had been hung on a wall. I combined broad frame with directional drop shadow and embossing and then used the Lighting filter to add three spotlights pointing downward as if had been lit from above. I also used the same filter to add a textured, impasto element to the painting and give it some relief.
So there we are. You know where to send those five-figure cheques, don’t you?
I’ll add a link to the in-camera original so you can see where we came from.
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you are wearing your sunglasses. Happy Sliders Sunday!! :)

This quirky piece of sculpture made of old fruit crates is in the centre of the fast food stands at the Victoria Markets.
this is my "take" on something I saw eons ago at The Vines...to see such an overload of creativeness was flabbergasting.....nothing does justice to being there but I wanted to do something and in my style......and spent this day on it...
