One Image 4 Ways – I saw this topic in one of Leanne’s posts and I love editing, as it allows for endless creativity and expression. For this particular challenge, I thought I would do more than just a few little tweaks to the image, aiming to truly explore the depth and versatility of a single photograph. But hey, I got carried away, so I ended up creating more than five variations, even though I ultimately decided to just post five . (click to enlarge images)

Each edit showcases a different approach, demonstrating how even minor adjustments can dramatically alter the mood and impact of the original image.
A version with changes sky and darker tone, and one with limited color palette and more intense sky.


It is incredibly fun to see what you can do with an image, and I hope my interpretations inspire others to experiment with their own photographs in creative ways.
Original sky and three color versions




I love that you can create a mood with the changes, Ritva, but for me the enhancements sometimes make the photo look artificial. Your soft, wistful looks are my favourites.
I agree, I ended up liking the the original sky best, replacing a sky is not so easy and in my opinion on subtle changes most of the time look natural.
These are all great edits, but I shan’t be joining you. A bit of horizon correcting and cropping is all I’m prepared to do. Either the photo is ok. Or it’s not, and is binned. I’m I a bit of a party-spoiler, aren’t I?
No, not at all. I mostly do little edits to the photos, I like mostly the natural look, but I also like editing, I think it is creative – fun. That is not for everyone 🙂 That is the artist side of me. I haven’t done much art lately, so this is filling the void. Although I am going to attend a graphic course during this autumn 🙂
Beautiful pictures 🌺🌺
It is fun to create something from a photo. Changing the sky is something I haven’t done. I tend to create abstracts than reproduction of the original except for XingfuMamas one to three photo challenge
My favorites are in the second row. When I have time I will try.
It’s so amazing how the mood changes so much with just a bit of color change!
Wow, these turned out well! Their subtle but bring out the original beauty 😍
It’s amazing how much an edit can change a photo. Great examples!
