Sharon Mau
Aloha Anthony, I would love to know how you created this. The colours and textures are so very beautiful. Will you describe for me your technique?
Anthony Mancuso replied
Thanks Sharon. It’s quite simple really. I just blended two images in photoshop. The original image is of the grasses and blue sky and the second image is a concrete path that had great texture. I blended them together to what I thought was a good mix and played around with the colour on the second image and the result was a mix of the blue sky and second image. I also adjusted the curves and contrasts on both images to bring out the dark and light of the grasse. I hope this makes sense Sharon, if not let me know and I’ll have another go : )

Aloha Anthony, you’re welcome :))
Mahalo nui, thank you so much for your wonderful explanation on how you created this. It is very beautiful. I’m signing off now, I have been online for several hours exploring the Dimensions archives for new features. Jacob and I walked along the beach this evening on the North Shore and I am so sleepy now. I wish you a lovely day or evening, which ever the case may be. Too tired to remember where you are in the world. Here on Maui it is 0100
Aloha :))
