Original background pictures shot by me in Gloucester cathedral, many layers processed in cs3
This is a late edition to my Swan Lake series where I captured my beautiful model Kylie with Tulle blowing in the wind. 3 seperate exposures layered into one & with speedlite lighting and a dark curved sky reminds me of old paintings. Shot in the hills east of Perth / Canon 40D 17-85mm lens, f14,1/250, ISO 250, EX580 master, EX430 slave, psot processing photoshop CS3
first attempt at a vetorama thingy.
one of my more popular photomanipulations… the idea behind this, is a single mother and her baby, desperate for a better life than they are currently living. the mother then takes their predicament into their own hands, jumping up to the beautiful sky in order to fulfill their dreams and subsequently “colouring them in”. / or at least it was something like that. featured on the arts page, thankyou! comments and favourites very much appreciated!

Learn how to blend different pictures using layers, to create a digital montage : You don’t have to master every creative tool that Photoshop or Elements has to offer in order to make great images. In fact, just a basic understanding of the layers pallet and its range of Blending Modes can provide fantastic results. Here’s my methodology that created my gallery for Experimental & Alternative Process Photography. I have combined 4 images to create In her memories…...., two landscape photographs of Backwater Reflections #3, River Poems #1, a model portrait and a background image of land. Neither one is specifically shot for final resulting image. But with a little creativity and thinking I produced this image with increased significance and impact. As far what you put in your composite image ( digital photo montage ), that’s personal choice, but flat, simple subjects tend to work best. I suggest you to look around your home or nearby to find some interesting subject ( as for me in the background image of land which added a texture to final photograph ). Once you’ve got your images load them into Photoshop & let the fun begin! 1. Open start images with all desired images you want to blend. Ensure you have achieved desired level of processing with them, individually. / Now, make a NEW file ( Ctrl + N ). Input NAME, PRESET, WIDTH, HEIGHT, RESOLUTION, COLOR MODE, BACKGROUND CONTENT. Click OK. Your BLANK document will appear on screen. 2. Now, SELECT ( Ctrl + A ) the desired image for BACKGROUND IMAGE and COPY ( Ctrl + C ) on the clipboard. PASTE ( Ctrl + V ) on the BLANK document. 3. Follow the process with other images opened, to add TWO or THREE layers in the NEW file. 4. Pick the background image in the NEW file, then click all the “EYE” icons above it. It’ll deselect the layers. Press “D” to select as a foreground color. 5. Now, add another layer by ACTIVATING “EYE” icon the adjacent box, deselected earlier. 6. Start playing with BLENDING MODES, OPACITY and FILL. 7. First NORMAL and DISSOLVE you use rarely. DARKEN to DARKEN COLOR increase COLOR saturation and contrast. LIGHTEN to LIGHTER COLOR increase brightness, and make all black areas in the layer to disappear, allowing the layer below show through. This also helps you to select images with dark or black background. 8. As you come down one by one in the blending modes, intensity of the blending mode increases – Dark will be more darker and bright will be brighter. / 9. Use OPACITY and FILL to adjust blending composition to desired level. Don’t hesitate to use CHANNEL MIXER, HUE & SATURATION, SELECTIVE COLOR, LEVEL, CURVES tools as and when desired to get impact and toning with the desired layer. 10. To make the image more sophisticated try BLURR and DISTORTING some parts of it, because it is multi layered image it’s really easy to do, and it looks great. / 11. Now, FLATTEN the image finally. LAYER – Flatten Image. Save to desired file extention *.tif, *.psd, *.jpg. Usually, I prefer *.tif for original and then convert to *.jpg. I am thankful to my friend Sue for pushing me to write a tutorial for this image and making me to take a plunge in the deep ocean. I humbly say, I am not a Photoshop expert, I still have to go a lot distance but sharing this method will help many, as this form of art was one of my dreams and thought it might not be a reality for me. But it happened for me, and wish to happen it for many :) Prasad

Learn How to create selective color image in Photoshop - Many times selective color images convey the message more strongly than just a color or monochrome image. Photoshop has provided the freedom to work on a color image to get final desired result. Although, nothing is predictable or can be planned to get good result in photography, the best out come or result is still depend on basic skill of human being – i.e. Creativity. Here is my methodology for SC processing - There is no thumb rule for an image used for selective color processing. You can use Portraits, Landscapes, Stills, Candid images, Macro or any of your choice. Once you decide to work on any image real PS fun begins. I selected Colors of Life for SC processing. 1. Open an image as a new file or copy of original image. 2. Make a duplicate layer ( CTRL + J ) 3. Convert the image to Black and White using Desaturate command. ( Image > Adjustments > Desaturate OR just press CTRL + SHIFT + U ) or the Channel mixer ( Image > Adjustment > Channel Mixer ). Color information of the original image will be removed and image will appear B&W. 4. While the top layer is selected adjust image resolution to 100% or just press ALT + CTRL + 0. 5. Now select History brush tool to retrieve details from original image. 6. Adjust brush size, opacity and flow to the desired level. ( This can be done by experimenting ). 7. Start painting on the area you want to bring back for color. 8. Since, it is a brush you can literally “bring back” only certain parts of the image by painting them. 9. Finally just FLATTEN the image. LAYER – Flatten Image. Save to desired file extention TIF, PSD or JPG Usually, I prefer TIF for original and then convert to JPG. I got the final result in Intent . . . . . . . I humbly say, I am not a Photoshop expert, I still have to go a lot distance but sharing this method will help many, as this form of art was one of my dreams and thought it might not be a reality for me. But it happened for me, and wish to happen it for many :) PS : You can create a copy of original background layer and experiment with blending options to create perfection keeping upper most layer as described above untouched.

i have decided to try a whole new approach to my art. here, i’ve tried something new. perhaps it will be the start of yet another revolution… this is a digital painting, done in photoshop cs3. / 28 august 2009.
started off with 2 images for this, one of my face and one of my hands covering the face. / I then opened both images in camera raw and applied the same settings to both photos. / Next i aligned the photo of my face with the one of my hands. / Then it was just a matter of masking and blending the images together. / This took a few attempts to get it to blend well, but I am happy with the end result. / total time was about 4 hours

Kyleakin is the first village encountered on the Isle of Skye, when you cross over the bridge from Kyle of Lochalsh…....this is where the old Ferry boat used to land, which I don’t miss at all, romantic it might be, but darned inconvenient !! / The old ruin you can see behind the boats is Castle Moil…......a few facts for you….... “The 14th Century Castle Moil has had many names in its long history. Also known as Dun Akyn (Norse for Hakon’s Fort) and An Caisteal Maol in Gaelic, it is now a romantic ruin. Sited at the Skye end of the road bridge in the village of Kyleakin, the castle has Norse connections. Legend has it that a Norwegian princess, otherwise known as “Saucy Mary”, ordered a chain to be hung from the castle to the mainland so that no boat could pass without paying a tax.” / Nothing new under the sun then, eh ??!! LOL !! A three RAW HDR, shot on my Canon EOS 50D, polarising filter fitted, iso 100, f23, Auto WB, processed in Photomatix, then sprucing up in Adobe Photoshop CS3. / I used HDR because of the extreme light / shadow.
