Union Square Market: Still Life with Pumpkins (Posterized Photo)


Here's another image that started with a photo that I took at the Farmer's Market in Union Square during my recent visit to New York City.  This still life includes pumpkin, delicata squash, and kabocha (green pumpkin).  All are edible, but also fun to use  for decorations for fall holidays. Today I cropped this out of a larger photo, so I used Painter to enlarge the image. Then I did some cleanup with digital airbrush and used color overlay and selective posterizing to get this image.  And I managed to keep what I liked best about the original: the combination of bright sunlight and dark background (which was the booth set up for the market).
