Purple Mountain Majesty

in photofeed •  7 years ago 

While up in the Western Desert of Utah at Notch Peak I took A....LOT of pictures of the mountain layers. I had fun processing them in different colors.

I am usually a very traditional and minimalist editor. Since being on Steemit and seeing all types of photography and editing styles I wanted to play with the different colors.

This is mostly inspired by @alevaskye and her request to edit playing around with color temps and tints and @jfolkmann who wanted us to "bringing out the natural pinky & purpley tones in a dusk/dawn sky" for Jack My Style for @photogames

Where is #photogames by the way? Are you coming back? (19 days...since last post) Who are the winners of Season 2?

Which is your favorite? Why?

I'm a huge fan of purple.... so I'd go for the last one. Although the horizon feels like it could use a small tilt. :) Lovely effect!!
About the @photogames, we all know who to call!

Yes we do. @jarvie! @derekkind! What about Season 3 too. We miss #photogames

Here, here! : )

I do like 3 and 9... just because I am always attracted to "the golden glow". 10 looks like it is from another planet, like legit without editing and 7 feels oh naturale, it has a beautiful feel.

"Where is #photogames by the way? Are you coming back? (19 days...since last post) Who are the winners of Season 2?" - YES!! I'm with you... I'm so missing it and I'm having to find other projects to entertain myself with! lol I'm also missing the interaction we all usually have too. It hasn't been the same! Shouldn't you have some insider info on this one though Sara? : )

Oh and I just checked the leader board for season 2 and it has been complete now. You can go and see who the winners are : )

Oh exciting. I need to go check it out. Thanks for the comments on the pictures. No one picked the green one! Ha ha, it was a bit out there for me to even put it in the post. So far out of my comfort range.
Yes I hope photogrames starts soon. I agree, there is some great interaction during the games.

There's some good news there for you! : )
I think it's great to go out of our comfort zone, so I am learning... I guess that is how we learn and improve.
YES!! I'm so, so missing it... can't wait for it to start up again!

Yes! I really wanted to make it to the top 10. And congrats to you too. And you doubled your money.

And to you!! : D
I was hoping to make it to the top 10 too, it was a goal but I missed the first week as we were away so I didn't know if it was ever going to be a possibility, so that was pretty exciting : ) I think I had the top points for one of the weeks too??? I'll have to wait to hear :D
Doubled my money? What do you mean?

Yes, because you were the winner of one of the weeks!

A lot of color variation :)
I'd say my favorite is #7. Looks natural and has a desert fell.

Hi @kiokizz thanks for your comment and support.

I love number 7! There's both yellow/orange and a hint of purple in it, and it's for me the most exciting one. But well, they are all gorgeous! I love these layered landscapes as well, too bad I live in one of the flattest countries on earth :')

Hi Rosane. I was super excited for the opportunity to shot the layered landscapes, yay for Utah and the mountains. Another reason for me to love the mountains.

WOOOOOOW Do I have to pick just one???? I like number 5 and number 7.

Thanks Gaby. My co-worker really liked 5 and so I have decided to do a triptych of 5, 6 and a vertical 4 for my office. Super excited.

My favorites are 1, 3, 5, 9, 10 because they stand out more the mountains and the light

Thanks Milo, so glad you liked them.

:D
