The theme listed for this week’s challenge is New Beginnings. Well, it was a bit of a new start here with further restrictions on our day to day life. I’m grateful to be able to leave the house once a day to go for a walk. Despite all the obvious signs of new beginnings with the flowers all starting to bloom here, I went with this actual sign:
ISO 25 f/2.2 1/4808 sec 4.2mm
I did all my basic edits to this photo and then went to add a Luminar Look to this photo. There are all a whole series of looks grouped as “Stunning Portraits”. Well now, the idea of this being a portrait struck me as too funny of an idea to let pass so I have selected the look “Fashion Punch Faded” and applied it at 49%.
Your thoughts are welcome below!
Cheers!

New beginnings indeed – I was looking at the small park from my balcony and the trees are turning green. It lifted my spirits.

Thanks for capturing and sharing a fine example of defiant joy in adversity.
It’s hard to draw a circle freehand. Looks like somebody went to the trouble of tying a string around a sharpie to keep it a fixed distance from the center point. Or maybe they’re a Zen monk. Enso it goes.

Given how tidy they keep their front garden, I was not surprised to see how perfect this circle was.
