They Say The Devil Is Beautiful...They're Right.


 I slipped up today. I went to Devil's lake and was excited to take some pretty cool scenic pictures. The pictures turned out great! I went a little overboard with editing though. I wanted to make a couple of the images look like old photographs, but ultimately made them look tacky and overbearing. The bottom two pictures could have been really nice, had I not tried to hard to give these pictures a certain "look". However, I caught myself before I ruined anymore. The picture on top is one I'm proud about. Instead of a picture of the view overlooking the lake or a typical "forest" shot, I spotted this curvy tree. My grandma applauded me for noticing this interesting and weathered tree. Up close, I was nervous that it would just be another, cliche, boring nature picture, but with my improving editing skills, I think I managed to create a striking image with a sort of mysterious essence to it. The bottom two pictures are such a shame.
