We all have our own ideas of beauty. Here’s a recent example from my camera.
Recently I was enjoying some time at the Southbank parklands, which is a tract of land that was redeveloped to enable the city (Brisbane, Australia) to host World Expo 88 (in 1988). 1788 was the year that the British colonised Australia, and so the Expo was held in conjunction with celebrations around the country.
While walking I decided to take some photos and when I got home, played with the settings just a tad. I don’t often do that but on this one I think it gave the photo even more character and enhanced its beauty. It was a steamy day, so the misty treatment reflected how one might feel walking around in the high humidity.
Thanks Andy.

When you click on it it zooms in and the colours just burst out at you. I know what you mean about the colour vs the grey cloudy sky. I think you grabbed a perfect moment there.

Yes. I almost had to lie down to get it. Luckily though I have a decent wide-angle lens that got it all in. Thanks for commenting. 🙂

South Bank is a lovely space and your photo offers an entirely different perspective for me. It does indeed, evoke the humid atmosphere. I love your banner shot too Kim.

Thanks Robyn. What is the perspective you would be used to? The banner shot is from Bribie Island. Sunsets like that are quite common.

Kim, I don’t think I’ve ever added a physical filter/effect (although I enjoy using metaphorical ones). I rather like the way you’ve expressed it as evoking the humidity that defuses the light. It’s something I’ll experiment with in future. The Iphone allows all sorts of things now : )

You have the metaphors mastered. That’s what makes your own posts so interesting. They certainly get the grey matter humming.
