It’s been a while since I have done a set of interpretations of a single capture. This set is based on an image of one of the ornate chandeliers and ceilings in the Brighton Royal Pavilion. The Pavilion was built as a summer pleasure palace for George IV at the turn of the 18th century. It’s a marvellous, fantastical place. The image was taken last November.
There are four images in the set. I’ll link to the in-camera original in a comment as well so that you can see where we started.
V1 - This is a ‘proper’ edit using Capture One and Affinity Photo. This is the basis for the other three versions.
V2 - This version uses Nik Color Efex, which uses all sorts of compounded effects, including a bi-colour filter.
V3 - This version uses Nik Analog Efex to give a double image effect with two copies of the basic shot. The second copy is scaled and zoom blurred a little.
V4 - This version is a play with Topaz Studio 2 using the remix filter to change the colours. I’ll put this one in for Sliders Sunday this week.
I find straight up central chandelier shots interesting. I guess it’s the symmetry and abstraction. This picture reminds me of a spaceship, which is often how my little bear’s brain interprets symmetric abstracts. Perhaps I should have called it Rama 37 or somesuch. The Pavilion has lots of good painted ceilings and chandeliers so I was in a personal playground.
Anyway, part of the fun with these sets is letting you choose your favourite. It’s always interesting how people differ, though often the most popular is the plain edit (a humbling reminder of how easily I waste my time for no purpose, lol).
Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the set. Happy Sliders Sunday :)
I used to think I needed to linger in a moment in order for it to stay meaningful, but there can be so much beauty in short and fleeting moments.

Rich autumn colours sweep across the Blayney district in Central West NSW, with golden trees and warm seasonal tones highlighting the rural landscape.
We cherish the nights when there is no wind (and a cloudy sky).
It creates that mirror effect that doubles the pleasure, fun and interest, or in this case a semi-mirror. One of my contacts (Jeff H) in Louisiana so eloquently stated that we here in the south don't have mountains so we have to be creative to get the job done. I couldn't agree with him more. Thanks for looking ~ sunset ~ FL Everglades

I didn't have time to chase spring today at lunch, but because of that time change a week or so ago, there is still lots of sunlight after work!
I stepped out the front door, thinking it may take some time to find something but out of the corner of my eye I noticed that part of my garden had defrosted and cleared.
The dirt is visible! It's not just dirty snow, but actual mud and because it's been months, I'm excited and that is probably why I enjoy this shot so much.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Seen from Teglhagen in Tønsberg, the blue hour unfolds above the western horizon as the final traces of daylight fade into deep evening tones. Layers of orange, pink and purple linger beneath a vast cobalt sky, while rooftops, antennas and distant lights form dark silhouettes against the glowing horizon. For a brief moment, the city and the sky share the same quiet rhythm before night takes over.
Fun fact: The "blue hour" is usually much shorter than the golden hour, often lasting only 20 to 40 minutes depending on latitude and season. In Norway, the long summer twilight can make this magical period feel surprisingly extended compared to more southern parts of Europe.

Kentmere Fine Print VC Warmtone
For those fellow flickr lith printers who might like to see what Kentmere Fine Print VC Warmtone looks like with Lith.- Very gritty effect. Seems to work well with architecture but I don't think I'd try it with portraits!

Old film emulsions, continued...
Agfachrome was a popular European film in the 1960s, and I shot a couple dozen rolls of it between 1969 and 1973, That was enough. Its warm tones were not unpleasing, but it had huge grain and corresponding loss of detail, compared with the Kodak films of the day.
One evening I photographed friends Suzanne (L) and Dianne (R) in Old Montreal. Suzanne was Québécoise; Dianne was an exchange student from Australia. A candid shot. At the time, they were my peers, but now I see them as... teenage girls. Impossibly young. My shooting style was fairly well developed by then. I didn't have a strong technical knowledge base, but I knew what I liked. For example, I was never interested in formal, posed portraits; I always tried to capture the authentic, spontaneous moment.
When I started scanning my old slides and negatives around 1999, I noticed many of the Afga slides were fading badly. Some had turned strongly magenta and looked smeared. This, after 30 years of dark storage. Meanwhile the Kodachromes and Ektachromes were as fresh and bright as the day they were processed. Luckily, those two had been my main films for 27 years - until an interloper came along and took over the market.
I'll get to the interloper in a couple of days.

Am Ahornboden wandern ist vor allem im Herbst ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Der große Ahornboden im Karwendel in Tirol ist nämlich für seine unfassbar schöne Laubfärbung berühmt. Und zieht dann mit seinen über 2000 Bäumen jedes Jahr unzählige Menschen zum Wandern an. Nicht umsonst wurde der Große Ahornboden sogar zum Naturdenkmal erklärt.
Hiking at Ahornboden is an unforgettable experience, especially in autumn. The large Ahornboden in the Karwendel in Tyrol is famous for its incredibly beautiful foliage color. And then attracts with its over 2000 trees every year countless people to hike. It is not for nothing that the Große Ahornboden was even declared a natural monument.

felt sense ....
... am Opfinger Baggersee
im Vergleich zum Original-Print kommt der gescannte Print am Bildschirm immer etwas körniger und etwas farbiger rüber - obwohl ich schon ordentlich am Sättigungsregler gedreht habe.
Zur Tonung mit Moersch MT3:
Bleicher 1:40, 10 Sekunden. Ich warte gar nicht, ob ich eine Bleicherwirkung sehe, denn bis ich was sehe, ist der Print schon viel zu weit gebleicht ;-) - zumindest für mein Empfinden. Also nur 10 Sekunden im Bleicher und dann raus und gewässert ...
Anschließend die Tonung mit der Rückentwicklung.
