Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round?? Picture Purrrfect .
Though still a bit dark, you can see a lot more of the great detail. Especially if you full view .... so Full View !!!! LOL
What I did.
1.) I opened up Photofiltre & first thing I hit Filter > Color > Revive Colors. It's basically satuarates your colors quick & dirty, I like it & if I need to do it more I can do that using the Adjust tab.
But it gives your colors a life & a brightness that starts you off nicely.
2.) Okay, now I hit the Adjust tab & went to Gamma correct & took the level from 1.00 to 1.40. I went higher but ran into the problem of the "hot spot" in the middle so I backed it down again.
3.) I did hit the Add Highlights in the Adjust tab but I faded it back a little because of the hot spot which turned into a problem. I was able to bring the background into focus but everything I did also brightened up the foreground too much so in the end I had to compromise.
Sometimes in Apophysis this happens with the best of the flames & you just work around them which is what I did.
4.) Still in the Adjust tab I went & saturated it 9%, not too much I know, just enough to liven up the colors some more.
But... *big grin * because I just can't resist playing with color..... I went & switched colors on Ian.
I swapped his RGB - GRB & made his pretty teal blue base color a purple blue base color. Which I am here to tell you Ian is NOT happy with me about & so I'm apologizing again.
I'm so sorry Ian hon !! *big hugs !!*
But he graciously allowed me to post this anyway.
As you can see, minor post work & Ian's already gorgeous flame is a little more visible.
Thanks again Ian for letting me play with it !!
*hug*

When you're through with life and all hope is lost.
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end.
Wow, like someone flipped on the light switch!! The design and depth of this image is gorgeous and you, Lauren, allowed it to shine!! The true meaning of collaboration where two great talents unite.

Much of the beauty in life is found in people who care.
Full view gives the details, and really perfect light and shadows, admirable work Lauren..:)
