WW - snowdrops
This is a photo of some snowdrops, honest! This week's entry for the Tuesday and Wednesday editions of Wordless Wednesday.
Thanks everyone. I did take it. Unless otherwise stated All WW and PH photos are my own
The shot was a conventional, if contrasty, monochrome photo. I simply upped the contrast and brightness, adjusted the light balances and painted out a few residual bits of foliage
You and I posted at the same time and you've already got oodles of comments! I find this black and white shot to be really fascinating! The white drops remind me of Pussy Willows! ~~~Blessings~~~
this is wonderful!!! a quite unconventional shot of snow (well, at least for me) but still maintained that downy look we always associate with winter flakes!

That is ultra weird and fascinating! Almost like crazy paw prints!

For a second I thought they were rice :P

I am wondering the same thing as stan and James above? How did you do it?
Those are wild looking snowdrops.

So that's how snow drops looks like. They are almost the same as cotton balls :)
Great work!
I love that flower!
Really? It looks like a painting. It is lovely.
Happy WW from Mostly Wordless Wednesday HQ!

Great effect, I love the way it turned out!
Hope the leg unstiffens a bit soon and recovery goes smoothly.

Tanks everyone
Err I meant thanks of course!
Looks like abstract art to me :-)
I got so caught up in the Jesus in the Kit Kat I almost forgot WW but I meandered on over and what do I see snow drops? Well Jams if you say so!
That was the effect I was after Cherie!
Ah they are snowdrops. Double snowdrops taken from an odd angle!
