Third in the Crown Of Thorns series. One more to come.

I found creating this series an uplifting and invigorating experience and I believe that it helped to open my heart to Jesus and paved the way towards my becoming a Christian.

Blended layers and a sepia tone – using channel mixer and curves in photoshop – then a sepia texture layer added.

Canon EOS 20D / Canon USM 28mm-105mm lens.

I’ve been taking photographs since 1997 and I still love it. After a brief dislike of photomanipulation I now use Photoshop extensively on a majority of my work. People are my favourite subject and I’m always on the look out for new models, so drop me a line if you’re interested! :)

    This whole series so far is powerful, moody and slightly enigmatic with the textures demanding attention. The layering is superb and I look forward to seeing the fourth in the series

  • Thank you very much!
