Today the photo-a-day challenge is a candy cane. I took this photo in manual trying to over-expose it on purpose, but it is still more my style to make it darker than lighter. So this photo just looks normal to me .
When you have so much white in the photo my favorite way to get it dreamy is to use a texture. Which is what I did here. The texture is called Urban with an overlay at 56%. Texture is from Kim Klassen. So, finally I get the desired look with manual and a texture. I have been trying to create photos like this for awhile.

I love the simplicity of your photo. It makes me feel peaceful and warm...like Christmas. :) I also like the ribbon around the cup. I'll have to look for some like that. And texture is nice. I wish I knew how to do that. Just another thing to "learn" out there. Take care and Merry Christmas!!
ReplyDeleteYour photo is gorgous. The small branch of holly was a charming touch to your display.
ReplyDeleteI really like how the photos turned out. I've never used textures in my photos, but I do like how yours turned out so I might have to try it sometime.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are great. Amazing what you did with the subject. Super sweet.
