STRIPES

Nature reclaiming an old road.

I just now reworked this image. I took it back in 2010 with the Sony R1. I utilized my increased skill set for working in Lightroom to enhance and reinterpret this image. The changes over what I did to it two years ago are subtle, yet significant. It may seem like a contradiction, but I find that when working on a fine-art piece that there is a point where subtle changes make all the difference.

The first version of this photograph.

In looking at the two photographs you may be able to discern a difference in the color and luminance of the pavement and of the green stripes. I think it is valid to prefer one over the other.
