This time, I took a slightly different turn on the challenge of “Curves”, and I pulled one out of the crypt, so to speak
This dates back to the years that I was living in China, and had visited the section of The Great Wall, in Badaling, at Beijing.
I was fascinated, even at that time, as to how the Wall, snaked itself around, and over the mountains.
This edit was done to highlight the snaking, curving path against a very dark mountainous background.
Oh, for those interested, I duplicated the background, and used the Topaz B&W Effects Filter. I then added a vignette, and a very slight curves adjustment
During the edit, I also boosted the whites and the blacks, to heighten the contrast

Thank you!

very creative ♥♥♥
Thanks!
It is beautifully dramatic, the heightened contrast adds even more to that. Amazing structure, no wonder that is a world wonder. One wonders upon the thought of scale, man made and nature made, here both are most impressive.
Thanks. Glad you like it… It is an amazing structure.i have seen 4 sections of the Wall near Beijing
Tales from the Crypt? You’re so funny, Rajiv. And as usual, the photo slays. xo
We saw the wall at Badging too. What an amazing feet! I think the effects heighten the drama of it, Rajiv.

Thanks… Yes, the Wall is amazing. The one section at Simatai is wild. And, another unknown section that I went to
Great edit and image .. It is quite amazing the way it curves about
Thanks, Julie!
