Brian recommended this challenge to me, so now I spent few moments playing with my image, during that the time the sunset. Time well spent 🙂 I don’t know, but it is creative fun.
I started with this image I took at Hollola Church – it is rather bland image the light in the window is too strong. Obviously the first would be to convert to B&W and play with contrast and light. It goes without saying that I have adjusted the photo vertically.
The next step is to play with the colors version. I did make it pop 🙂
Then I switched to PhotoShop and added texture to it 🙂
I would not be me if I didn’t have one more to share , playing first in Lightroom with the colors and light, then again switched to PhotoShop to add texture. Blues of the evening…

You really did make it pop. I like how you brought out details that were barely noticeable in the original, like the building visible through the window. Your treatments also really accented that beautiful stone wall.
❤️ the vibrant color texture version
The blues are awful but I like the black and white and the last but one. Happy playing, Ritva!
This is amazing. I loved the edits you created.
I like the B&W and the Textures changes. Happy you had fun Ritva 😀
