Incorporate a form of glass into your image to add a layer of complexity
Took this shot with the trusty Samsung S4 Camera phone, through my glasses of the newspaper (on my desk at work), came out quite well, I left the flash glare as I thought it added a little something as opposed to being distracting.
This is one I prepared through lunch for fun, I blurred the background and added filters to make the bridge in the middle and rapids flowing over the windows sill look as if seen through Rose Colored Glasses. Something a little weird and fun for a stressful Tuesday lunch break.
