WYP 65 | Dolce Pics

I had the pleasure of meeting Laura from Dolce Pics in person this weekend! :] We attended a workshop together, and she's pretty rad!

She runs a little game called "What's Your Play" every Tuesday, where she uploads a photo and asks other photographers to tweak it however they see fit, and share the results. I love seeing other people edit. (It's strange, I know! :D) So I play along whenever I can.

Original photo can be found here:

Now, despite having midterms this week, I played along anyway! (Or maybe it's because of midterms..)

What's Your Play - Dolce Pics

Laura over at Dolce Pics has this "What's Your Play" post every week, and she encourages us to play around with an image she uploads- so people can see how others edit some photos.

I think it's a neat idea, and like to play along once in a while. :D The original photo can be found here: http://www.dolcepics.com/whatsyourplay/63/
