Another texture play day! This is one of the photographs I took but decided not to use for my Mortal Muses post today, for the theme “Morning.” Pop on over there to see the photo I did choose and the poem that I wrote on this journal page. But I thought I would share this one here today, as another experiment in using textures from Kim Klassen. For this image I used her “Autumn” and “Wet Tile” textures, both blended using Soft Light. I like how it softened the image, giving it a more contemplative feel, which is what I was going for in the shot. Original image is below for comparison.
See you all again on Tuesday, with photos from Oktoberfest!

It was 91 degrees warm today and while I am so ready to embrace the coolness of Fall and enjoy a warm cup of Something, it is tough shen you are in a tank top and glowing ( women don't sweat, they glow!) Beautiful, my friend!
Seeing this photo makes me want to grab a cup of tea and start journaling myself! Love the soft look!

I love the textured version. Maybewe should do a textured prompt? 🙂 xo
Beautiful work on this!
I'm falling in love with textures – and your shot is part of the reason why. The subtle changes they bring make photos come alive.
I love the textured version too. I've been playing around with them some, and enjoying it. I'm not sure I have the two you used here, but the effect is lovely.
Oh, I love the first photo, lovely texture. I hope Oktober fest went well and there's be lots of photos to share 🙂
