for kasaba (and anyone else who was interested)....
this was an early outtake from the recent Silhouette IX challenge, in which i actually entered this image
the basic setup was the sand and pears in front of a large piece of tanslucent velum, behind which was a lamp behind a piece of cardboard with a circle cutout
for this shot, the pears were just placed on the sand and adjusted to get the correct position between the light and the pears.
in post, i applied some effects using the following apps using my iPad
-Snapseed (basic adjustments)
-Prizma (the slight painterly effect around the sun edge and the glow on the sand)
-iColorama (the haziness and plasma looking textures in the sky)
that’s it!
