Texture Tuesday...white

12



At certain times of the day (usually in winter), the greenhouse positively glows.  It sits there
in its woodland domain, looking all ethereal, as if it's lit from within.
Just the magic of low light, nothing else.
A kind of mirage...
fleeting.

I admit, I was a little stumped when I first read the challenge for this week's photo...
I don't shoot a lot of white (except for the obvious - snow) and I haven't worked a lot with "high key"
so I almost passed on the whole deal... 
until
I popped over to the Cafe to see what everyone else was up to.

WOW.

So I cruised around, viewing all kinds of amazing work and landed over at Jen's website
where she - get this - removed the color from her original photo.
duh.  hello.
Call me copycat.  I know a good thing when I see it.

: : :

Today's photo received two layers of Kim's 'Poetic' texture.
Here are a couple more faves from the group pool...this one is unbelievably endearing,
this one is positively sublime, 
and because I am the sap that I am, there was this...

    1. Many thanks, Jen...it's all your fault, you know ;>}} g'house not a big one, just the right size for getting the veg starts going and offering some shelter from the assailing winds. It's taking on a decided *tilt* in its later years ~ not unlike others on this property!

  3. What marvelous effects you are getting! I love 'white' but I hardly ever work with it. You've got me thinking about a white on white punchneedle stitchery -- hmmm wonder how it would look?! Thanks for the inspiration.
