Three pictures using impressionist, graphic, and HDR styling.
A pole in the water – Abstract Impressionist
And here it is again, Cezanne-style, though not looking all that much different.
Rope on a boat – HDR with some graphics
And a Cezanne-style version …

I really like playing with filters, but I try to do it only when it feels right. Otherwise, you forget how to do “real” photography. I think photo-art has its own place, but it’s not photography. It’s something else.

Yes I agree with you, we live in a digital age where most things are possible. I rarely use filters, most of my edits are resizing before uploading and cropping the image. Occasionally, I have fun with images such as recently when my son wanted unique photos for his new home. Copied a small section of colour changed the image to black and white and Pasted back my coloured section. It was fun working to his brief.

Sometimes, when I’ve taken a LOT of pictures that look a lot alike, I decide to do something different with all the spares. Garry and I are both serious over-shooters. My theory is that since we don’t have to pay to develop pictures, I want to make SURE I get the shot … but often, I wind up with a dozen shots, each one only very slightly different than the others. But they are too good to delete — so I play with them. It is a kind of art. In its own right. It isn’t exactly photography, but it’s also not exactly art.

You are a ‘proper’ photographer Marilyn I am not, I probably come into my own with the IT element, I should really learn more.

Just practice. A lot of getting better is simply doing it!

Marilyn, I love that you can overshoot with digital. Only concern is battery saying “uncle”. I go for different angles on same picture, usually trying to see how many bushes I can use as a side profile to primary subject.

Can you do a Cezanne on the rope and the pole in the water, please. I love the day lily.

I did one, I posted two for the post and the rope, but they aren’t that different. I think you need more color to make it work better.

I did too. Which is why I took at least a dozen pictures of it, but they are all a bit crooked, so I haven’t been able to straighten all of them. I love ropes, especially “working” ropes.

Tish, there’s also that scene where the bad guys, riding at full tilt, pull up fast and hard in front of the lone toll booth sign. Slim Pickens, “.Anybody got change? Anybody?? ..sheeeet, we need a sheeeet load of nickels”. So darn funny.

Mel Brookes was so wonderfully bonkers, and that toll both scene is another cracker. I’m going to have to watch the movie again now. Could do with a good laugh.

HDR intensifies detail. Also, I have some decent filters for detail so IF the detail is somewhere in the picture, I can usually make it show up. Usually.
