Aurora Art
Uploaded: June 17, 2006
f/4, 1/250s, 40 mm, ISO 800, Detroit Federal Building on the Day we picked up our marriage license. This is an art installation in the lobby of the Federal Building. I will include the original. It is made of narrow panes of glass next to each other lighted from below. It casts patterns on the ceiling. I inverted it, saturated it slightly, and put a gradient over it in an effort to make it look more like a real aurora at night. (Make the sky color darker).

Here's the original photo. The other thing I did was to remove the ceiling tiles using the healing brush. #466685Mary N C. Taitt June 17, 2006 0
