Delightful Riverside

I love Richmond – used to work there up to 3 1/2 years ago and I miss working there!  Used to be able to walk to work, mostly by the river, had all the shops to wander round at lunchtime and had delightful views of the riverside plus some wonderful sunsets at wintertime!  Unfortunately in those days I did not have an iphone!   Now I work in the most horrendous place in Chertsey, in the middle of nowhere and I hate it so much!  In addition I have to drive a 32 mile round trip journey! 
Took this photo from across Richmond Bridge and my office used to be on the right hand side of the amazing Richmond Riverside development!
And yeeyyyyyy it has been featured in Pixels!

I took the photo with ClassicPan.  Used Filterstorm to brighten certain areas of the photo.  I then ran 3 different filters with AutoPainter and AutoPainterII and took them into Iris, blending them with the original and masking some areas out.  This is the original photo

By the River

Always lots of lovely photo opportunities when I walk or cycle to Richmond.  These houseboats were shot with Hipstamatic.  I did do a bit more processing with them but can’t remember what apps I used!

This one I took with one of the Camera apps and I then did a lot of blending with Iris :

Walking from Richmond to Ham you pass a rowing club.  These rowing boats were stacked up so I took photo with Hipstamatic (Watts Lens, Dreamcanvas Film).  Processed photo with AutoPainterII then some more effects and blending with Iris.
