"Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand- and melting like a snowflake." -Marie Beynon Ray
Are you ready for more? Visit Leslie at Week by Week to see how she puts some sparkle into this week's 52 on Fridays challenge theme.
Tracy, I used a tripod and set the shutter speed to something very slow to get more of the sparkle. I took the picture at dusk to get more color in the sky, then I brought up the blacks and use a vintage action (most likely from the Coffee Shop blog because I'm working with as many free resources as I can). The action uses a good bit of violet.
And a little secret? She was wearing a hilarious character tee from Walmart in this shot. It has fries in berets and says "French Fries". She is so upset that I took those out of the picture. lol!
So fun Tifani!!! I wish we could get sparklers here. I've always wanted to try a shot with them. You did such an awesome job on this - look at all that sparkle!
