You look like you really had some fun with this assignment. I love the images. I like the first duplicated image of the bird in the tree the manipulated one reminds me of the movie "The Birds". LOL. Great Job
ReplyDeleteThat third picture looks like a bad omen! I like the crop on the geese!
ReplyDeleteTom, you are very creative and seem to know your way around PS. I like what you did with the cars very neat...like a train of little blue cars. The magic wand tool you used to create that colorful photo....is so cool. The goose picture cropped brings out a lot of color. Did you use the darkening effect to make the grass seem to "pop" out more. Your photos are very fun!
ReplyDeleteTom, your manipulated Goose step is beautiful! The way you cropped it to just include the green grass background makes all the difference. The geese stand out a lot more!
ReplyDeleteNicely done!
Oh Tom, or Mr. Wavy Gravy, what can I say? I love the make toast not war photo, the birds, the cars (where is that taken, looks like a beach?). You use the tools well. One trick in PS when you've got a selection to paste is on each layer slightly alter the direction or tilt of the image. For instance, you can select the background of any layer (which is blank since the layer consists of one bird) then go to "select > inverse" and your bird is selected. Next go to "edit > Transform" and this puts a little box around the selection with anchors on each corner. You can hold the shift key down to keep proportions from getting skewed while dragging the corners to enlarge or make smaller your selection. You can also put your cursor outside a corner of the Transform box and it turns into a "turn" option, where you can tilt the box and items inside it, to vary the angle upon which it sits. Double click inside the transform box to make your transformations apply. In the same edit > transform box you can choose "flip horizontal" and this will flip your chosen image around to face the opposite direction. Careful, not to choose "flip vertical" as this flips it upside down.
