A bare tree and blue sky reflected in a large three-paned window, which is in the top of a multi-angled dark brown and red brick building. A large tree with bare branches looms in front with light blue sky behind.

Bottom is stainless steel lock box and has MAIL BOX on it in red letters. Top is black and tagged, with newspaper hooks below. The meshed glass window wall has a piece of paper with a box drawn on it that says "Please call for package."

Image of the grand canyon with a band of sky in the upper quarter of the image. There are splashes of colour here and there from peachy brown to pink to magenta to wine to violet to purple.

#PostProcess

In my Samsung phone image editor, I adjusted the light balance, contrast and shadow to add detail, then used the "spot color" tool to show the range (heh) of individual hues in the original image. But kept them isolated spacially for impact.

Lake Ontario at sunset. A large splash from a wave at shore crashes against a dock jutting into the lake that has a large, dirt-covered wave accumulation of ice on it. The sky is pink and lavender on the right under the clouds near the horizon. The rest has a faded blue cloud cover.

A front garden of clusters of large, purple irises with ruffled translucent petals, back-lit by the sun. There's lots of green foliage, including a tall leafy tree. The strong backlighting from the sun in the upper right creates a bright lens flare, tinging the tree leaves framing it purple. A bit of sidewalk and paving bricks appear in the bottom right corner.

A streetcar shelter packed with suitcases, boxes, and personal items. The glass is reflecting a streetcar passing on the opposite side of the street. Inside the shelter is a transit system map, an arrival display, and an ad for spaghetti sauce showing a hand holding a ladel that's pouring tomato sauce over a bowl of spaghetti. An OPEN HOUSE sign is also being reflected. There's a car parked behind the shelter

Two story, aged brick building in an alley, with randomly arranged multicolour bricks of yellow, grey orange, red and black. There are gridded block glass windows on the ground floor on either side of a metal gate door. The second floor has two three-paned windows. Conduit pipes run up the side of the building. Almost half the image below is worn, textured asphalt, showing layers of pavement, and there are two rusty storm drains. A small amount of snow lines the curb in front of the building.

At the bottom of the image, the large blazing yellow sun setting behind a trio of power lines, making it look like a musical score. Two diagonal crisscrossing power lines span over it. Two streetlamps jut out from the right side of the frame. A wispy fluffy blue cloud formation floats at the very top of the image. The sun is radiating beam waves, spreading throughout the sky

A pink flyer stapled to a tagged wood utility pole with a brightly multicoloured mural covered siding wall and curb in an alley lane behind. The flyer is a black ink graphic of a crying skull with heart-shaped eyeholes and a corded rotary telephone receiver up to its ear and mouth. The voice in the receiver is saying "confess your yearning" under the skull is the words FOR I HAVE YEARNED, and under that is "a night of poetry"

Looking up a dark residential street during a power outage. A row of traffic posts with reflective tape on the bottom left are the most visible objects. Part of an A-frame house is across the street on the right, dim glints of parked cars, a barely visible large tree, a street lamp forget in the background, and the faint glow of traffic from a street in the distance.
