Beyond Imagery: Blurred, Scenic Collage

Recently I started blurring out different photos--it gives such a nice, magical, surreal vibe to a picture. I decided to use blur for the background of this collage. The original background picture was of a blurred garland decoration, but I decided to blur it out even more, letting the colorful circles stand out on its own.

I decided to approach the building and take a closeup view of it and was amazed by the spectacular details of it.

Charming Chain of Lakes Collage

Foggy, cloudy, or overcast days can have its perks and benefits. The solemn sky gave these pictures a mysterious feel to it. The clarity of the lakes and trees were nicely defined, and the reflections added to the charm.
