Broken Glass

Broken Glass

Just a broken piece of glass beside the railroad track in Wake Forest.  If my memory is correct, Katy took this photo.

To put the focus more on the glass, I selected it using the Paths Tool (Paths Tool) in the Gimp.  Some of the other select tools would work too, but I usually prefer the Paths Tool.  Then used Control - I (Select -> Invert works too) to select everything except the glass.  Next, I desaturated the selection (Colors -> Desaturate -> Luminosity) and faded the desaturation to 75% (Edit -> Fade Desaturation -> Opacity = 75% ; Mode = Replace).  That's it.  Just Control - Shift - S (or File -> Save As) to save it.
