Forgotten

I took advantage of the rain to play with an umbrella and pavers that look pretty awesome when wet and bathed with warm light. I was actually playing with my hot shoe flash but didn’t like how it was lighting up the plastic. I shot this at f2.8, ISO 1000, at 1/30th of a second. Since nothing was moving, I didn’t really need the flash.

The original was dark(er) with too much background. I cropped in and changed the white balance to get the look I wanted. I used adjustment filters to make the shiny pavers sharper and have more clarity. Here’s the original.
