One Year of Photos 16/365 - Bubblegum Ice - Original Work

Welcome to day 16 of a photo a day for 365 days! This is where I post one piece of original work for one year in hopes to spread fun, inspiration and interaction on Steemit.

This shot was from a hike I did at the end of the winter season in Banff Alberta. Things were melting a little bit but the whole walk up to the water fall was pure ice! So what does any logical person do? Bring their really nice camera on a treacherous walk. Right? I got so many neat photos of the ice... ice on ice on ice. Now obviously these were not the colours, I mean if that existed that would be awesome but I took the liberty of playing with colours in Photoshop. I wanted to try using un natural colours and this is what I ended up with!

Paining in photoshop is really fun, just experimenting and playing around. I used the brush tool to paint on the image areas and then played with the blending modes. For most of this I put the blending mode to color and for once layer I used Screen. (if anyone wants to know! :)) I shot this using my Canon 6D, 17-40mm lens at 24mm, f 8.0 and the shutter was 1/6 seconds. The shutter was pretty slow so I held my camera as stable as I could on the railing that was in between us and the waterfall.

I also wanted to say thanks so much for following me! I just passed 300 followers and I wanted to say I am very grateful people have become interested in my one year photo challenge.
