MrsAmber from West Wickham, United Kingdom

I've loved the entire series..you know that! Is that post-processing on the reflection of this shot..I can't see how it can be anything else? Please enlighten me I have been inspired greatly by these pictures of yours. The colour in this one is sensational!

6 Nov 2009 11:30am

@MrsAmber: Thank you very much, MrsA.. I am glad you loved this series.

The whole reflection part is post processing using Photoshop. You have seen the original befor in the series.. here it is.. Original Post.

Here is the link to the tutorial I used as a guide. This didn't suite for my photo, but it helped to identity the necessary steps I needed to follow. I experimented with different effects.. to get this result
