Stairs to nowhere...

[FowlersFreeTime]

I've shown this spot before and I go back to the same spot in mum's garden every few years. It literally is a stone stairway that leads to an abandoned garden path. I had a little bit of fun editing this photo last night. It will not be everyone's cup of tea, and I would never submit it to the monthly comp, but as I said, just for fun.

I had a little bit of fun editing this photo last night. It will not be everyone's cup of tea, and I would never submit it to the monthly comp because it is way over-edited, but as I said, just for fun.

What's overedited? Did you add the sun?

Fake sun-star, layer with glow and added warmth, raised exposure shadows and saturation significantly.
Like I said, I was just messing around
I bet if I posted it on instagram people would believe that's how the scene looked in real life

True story, but I don't usually take it this far.

Other than the sun-star, those are just standard adjustments.

Haha, anything can happen at a magic place in Mum's garden!

I guess I might have to wait some time, but I'd be interested to see your pic of the stairs going up!
