Haven't had any inspiration for ages but spotted this cigarette packet while I was out on my walk yesterday. Just a bit of playing around really. I liked the dew on the top and the movement of the grass, which I've exaggerated here in V1. V2 is just a bit of cross processing.

Have a lovely day peeps.

I also like the dew which makes one feel the damp.

V1 is just that bit more weird...
Bill photographs abandoned lager cans, I go for abandoned items of clothing and footwear. It can be very difficult to explain this activity to passers-by...

the dew has certainly given this some extra textures Chris
great spotted opportunity

Does the Duty give the once owner a warrant to dispose of in in such a careless manner. Two great images each well captured and processed. Version 2 being my particular favourite.

The dew looks like spawn...nature taking over. V2 me thinks, Chris.
Hope you feel inspired again soon.Smile

I like them both Chris. I'm not at all sure what cross processing means - off to Google it - but I like v2.

Two great shots, with v2 being my preferred choice. Haven't touched a fag (you know what I mean ....) in 17 years, don't miss them one bit.
