Thanks, Dan, Traveller and Mr. Biscuit! Traveller, Lonnit caused me to think of this by calling my Red Chair not quite on topic, lol! I was trying for an image that shouted a color, as she requested. These are those glass pebbles that are used in vases to hold flowers in a blue glass bowl with a halogen light from below. The title actually came just before posting as I didn't want to call it Blue Glass Pebbles. Mr. Biscuit, I really wanted it a very deep rich blue for this challenge, after all, the image is not about the pebbles but about the color, lol! But if I have time I will play with your suggestions and post the results. Thanks for the advice! ~Sharon
Alternative title: Blue-Blooded [*sMiLe*]. Engaging pattern shot. I think using a Curve to brighten it a bit (while retaining shadow contrast), plus some edge sharpening, could give it more pop. But very nice. --Mr. Biscuit
Dear Sharon: This is an Eye grabber! However, I am worried about how much oxygen blue hemoglobin will actually carry?...lol. A lovely capture. What caused you to think of this, visualize it and then put it together? (Oh, and what is it?) Best Wishes, Traveller
