My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
Saturday night after I left work, I discovered the weather was picture perfect for a nice walk through the city. The air was crisp and dry, the sky clear, and the streets were filled with bustling pedestrians heading out for a weekend night on the town. So with camera in hand I strolled the city, noticing images that caught my eye.
I simply allowed my intuition to take me to places that had interesting lighting, because I wanted to capture a feel for the severe contrast of shadows and highlights that nighttime bestows upon urban life.
I only took eight shots, and then deleted them down to six.
And as I was using my online photo editor later that evening, I decided to experiment with a special effect I had never tried before.
It was called the harsh lighting effect, which transformed my original images into a totally different look.
It made the images appear as though they were sketched in color, rather than photographed.
So allow me to share a mini tour of Philadelphia in harsh contrast.
Please enjoy….
