The spot of violet (assuming my monitor is reading it right) really completes the color here. Is this a sycamore (plane) tree?

Stunning colors, excellent work! Photoshop is a marvel. One that I continue to learn.

Reminds me of an artists palette colours mihling as one.

Normally I would say the very last thing your photographs need are enhancement by any means. That said, your "fiddling" produced such gorgeous color and texture I will concede. Bravo!
Trilogy. Hope that means we get two more !!

Wonderful effect. PhotoShop is such fun.

Glad you did it! It's awesome!

Purposely, I chose not to read the caption until I figured out what the subject is. I finally gave up, and that's the beauty: your photo drew me in and making me THINK while at the same time satisfying the visual. Wonderful work!

Thank you, all of you!!
I know that photography is something totally different, something that should capture a moment in a natural manner, but I can not resist in playing with photoshop to see what can be done with it. I can assure you that the end-results can also satisfy the eye. It is playing with colours, electronic painting.
I have "blown up" two of the "works" I created and will frame them, because my son wants to hang them in his very modern appartment which has neutral colours and a limited quantity of excellent furniture. These splashes of abstract colours add a warm touch to the ambiance.
Enjoy your weekend!

Molto bravo! nonostante il marcato intervento con photoshop non si intravede nulla di artefatto! Buon fine settimana!

Virginia said...

I would say your son has you artistic vision. Wonderful artwork to add to his new home! Continue to experiment, we are eager to see what comes next!
Do you still have snow??

Hello everybody! Thank you for your kind comments!!
I personally like this kind expression of simple "art" and will post the last one tomorrow.
I saw on television that there is quite a load of snow in the North-Eastern part of the US (my sister lives in New Hampshre). Here we have quite some snow but on the lower levels only rain. Good season for the ones who ski!
Enjoy your sunday!!
