While taking a nature walk with my dad, I noticed this rotting stump, and how it looked with a shallow depth of field against the background trees. I thought to myself how it looked like a stalagmite, and how if flipped, it would look a lot like a stalactite, and would be a great entry for this challenge.
I didn't actually shoot this upside down, as doing to would require some type of magic. Instead I flipped it in post processing, bust at least I really thought about the image being upside down before taking it. I actually spent a lot of time this week thinking of different subjects that would work upside down.
Post Processing:
* Crop
* Flip
* Increase black point and recovery
* Increase saturation and definition of stump
* Increase saturation and vibrancy
* Topaz Adjust 5
* White Balance
* Vignette (more on the bottom than the top
* Sharpen the stump
* Export as TIFF
* Resize
* Sharpen Edges
* Save as JPEG
