Today’s assignment is: Pop of Color. We’re supposed to experiment with one color and feature it prominently in our photo.
It’s pouring rain here in Virginia today. A cold, cold rain . . . winter is brewing. Not wanting to venture far from my warm fireplace, I decided to grab an umbrella and see what kind of color I could find in my backyard. Enter my Nandina bushes. They’re always a festive burst of color this time of year.
I was kind of mesmerized by the water droplets on the berries, so I decided to play around with a little selective coloring.
Balancing an umbrella while photographing Nandina bushes sounded like a good idea in my head, but I ended up dropping my umbrella and getting slightly soggy. It was worth it.

Kudos for going out there today. That was worth the effort for sure. Going to frozen tomorrow. What did you use for post-processing? Lr?

Yes . . . I use LightRoom for post-processing. Heck of a learning curve, but I’m trying to get the hang of it. Cheers!
