The Chandelier & the Ceiling [Contest Winner Pool October 2008 Catch All]
Uploaded: October 10, 2008 00:17:50
(OCTOBER '08 - Elements of Design)
This one's dedicated to my mother. Its her birthday today.
This is a (reworked) submission of the picture I posted earlier (the original snap is placed in the discussion section).
I lied on my back on the carpeted floor, positioned myself right underneath this exquisitely attractive chandelier (about 20 feet above) which was hanging from the ceiling of an impressively decorated dome (about 150 feet high) of a mosque in Muscat, Oman. The shot was taken in December '06.
Used "shadows and highlights" in PS to bring out the colors and details of the dome ceiling.
Thanks for looking and have a great week-end guys.
