Bob’s Your Uncle!

I had a bit of a play on Photoshop, using a crop from a photo I took a while back (see below). I put it through the Gradient Map and Bob’s Your Uncle! Pretty colours. I took the original photo a few weeks ago. It’s a reflexion of my light fitting on top of aContinue reading “Bob’s Your Uncle!”
