Picture This -- Our Next Assignment

Blue Moods
Color has a profound effect on how we perceive the subject and scene before us. At times the light lends a hand, such as the predawn hours in a foggy river valley, and at other times we can convert an image from a normally lit scene to one that carries a color mood that we feel best tells the tale. Our Picture This! assignment for this month is Blue Moods, and you can send us images that were originally in a blue cast or those you've created with a blue mood added later. This photo of a glacier in Alaska was made on Shutterbug's recent Photo Cruise with a Kodak EasyShare DX7590 digicam, and the natural light and almost eerie blue of the glacier needed no help from Photoshop later.
