Happy May Day!
For a slight backward step, as I produced this image several weeks ago, when still experimenting with the new Fly Edges.
It’s always a leap of faith when trying something you’ve never done before. I’d taken these last snows of the year pictures, and had a kind
of Lomo effect planned for them, but thought I’d just give them a try with the pre-launched edges first, and what an epiphany!
The new edges when used in a very hard way like this are ideal for classic, timeless minimal image enhancing.
However, its still early days and we hope to show many more such leaps of faith!
Though I say myself, I was quietly pleased with the outcome, as was Getty Images, who snapped it up!
Happy days:-)
