Station Plaza and Samson Park — wk 9

This week’s post is a little late. Last week, I made several images around the Arapahoe Station plaza while waiting for the train. The fountains in the plaza are lit by lights below water. The lights cycle through several colors. I made this iPhone image when the fountains were lit by blue lights.

This image was processed with the ShockMyPic application; this gives Van Gogh style brush strokes to the image. I really like the texture of the water ripples that can be created with this app. I have made several images with this app over the years that have been posted here.

Around the fountains are several silver benches interspersed with lights. This image was processed with the Simply HDR. This app brings out the detail and contrast of a night image quite nicely.

On the way to the station from work, I stopped off at Samson Park to check out the sculptures. These “plants” were growing out of the snow. I made the image with plants against the dusk skylight. This took a different effect with ShockMyPic.

Going low and close, revealed the texture of the plants that were lit by the setting sun.

This park also has several sculptures with an “Alice In Wonderland” theme. Earlier in the week, I stopped by the park on the way to work. One of my favorites is the Mad Hatter’s tea party.

I just love the expression on the rabbit.
