Walking along the street in Dublin, Ireland, I came across a couple of bags of trash. But these weren't your average find. Such colors and shapes. I realized I was looking at origami, must have been a fun day? I looked up and sure enough I was in front of a school building.
Although a pretty weird photography subject, I thought it might have some merit, so I walked around the bags a few times and took what I thought were some interesting compositions.
Looking at the images on my computer, I thought that I really wanted to enhance everything, the shapes, the colors, and even the plastic bag, which I believe adds a lot of texture and interest.
In Topaz Adjust 5 I tried a few presets, and then settled on vivacious, which this treatment certainly is. Click on the continue link to see the original. Kind of fun trying to make some art out of throwaways.
