Reality and Unreality

A hobby of mine is photography, but I also like digital image manipulation. So often my photos just become input material for digital experiments in shape, light and color. I want to present some of them in loose order here, I hope that will be alright :)

This is a fairly heavily reworked photo, and I'd like to give it a more happy atmosphere, but it definitely has a touch of strangeness, and that might be interesting, too.

It seems familiar yet strange. Spooky picture, nice work :)

Thanks :)

Since we all wait for spring, I thought I'll post this ... actually this photo was taken almost 4 weeks ago, when we had a few sunny and warm days in a row, and nature already prepared to awaken but then snow and winter came back.

Today I saw some more of these, but I don't have the photos online yet. I definitely hop that spring now has won over winter and will stay.

Oh, that's a beautiful photo, Hajo! When I look out of the window, I still see snow, so this picture really is a Messenger of Spring! :D

In between winter came back, and it was almost like on this photo again, which I had taken in January:

But since a while we have acceptable temperatures and no more snow now. Flowers bloom again. Bumblebees were visiting, but I didn't get to catch one with the camera. They are just too busy.
