Sepia Scenes #91



I've used the badge above before for our Sepia Scenes meme. If you'd like to use it go right ahead!

Welcome to our 91st Sepia Scenes post! The water toy at the side of the pool didn't let me turn it into sepia this week. So I used the Magnetic Lasso tool to isolate it, clicked on the Inverse filter, and then sepia-ized the background.

Join us by posting your own sepia photo then signing Mr. Linky!

Yes. I could hear the toy kicking and screaming all the way up here in Ontario. Good choice to keep the top its natural colour!

I love it! The smile of the color water toy is a smile of victory against the sepia background. Really cute.

I posted beach tones for my sepia offering.

I'm glad the pool float is in color. I like the contrasts in this lovely capture.

Ralph said...

The pool looks fine in sepia, as the child's floatation device stands out and beckons the day of fun...

I like what you did with the sepia for summertime scene! Nice how you kept the toy in color.

I don't understand what you did, but it came out really nice, Mary.

"The magnetic lasso tool" -- you sound like Wonder Woman, Mary!

Love the color selection in your photo! Perfect for a hot summer day!
Bella is home (in sepia) from her spaying on Purrchance To Dream, and the daylily that I had posted on Saturday at the Mo Files has been sepia-ized for today.
