So beautiful…

#2 terse and his agaves again

How do you make an Agave look so very moody and beautiful (and un-bug-ridden) . . . ?

#3. Totally love this image off Starzee. the light and shadows really make this a cracker.

#4 Starzee Leland and two scooters

Deliciously different. Love the Hipsta edit and the off-beat composition. Dark and foreboding abruptly interrupted by all that light and bright and youthfulness.
And the kid has two scooters. Perfect.

#5 terse and Wilder Ranch. Lots of lovely textures and tones and a nice geometric balance.

Loneliness

I guess I’m in a black and white mood today. I like the balance and stark contrast.

Reflected Glory

Love it! An abstract in shades of gray.

Paint can abstract

The colors are fabulous, but what I love most about this is that it was done in Snapseed! I have never considered that an “arty“ app.

Thank you
Regarding Snapseed, I agree, its not really an Arty APP so I find I have to really experiment with various settings to get a final result that I'm happy with, I find I undo a lot of settings if I don't like the effect, and any colours in the image can be boosted with the Tools saturation setting.
I play around on it so much, I could never remember or repeat each process again, so each image is a one off so to speak, but I enjoy the challenge, and can highly recommend the APP to add to a phone/ Tablet

I can say that about just about every app I touch!
