Photo Manipulation Fun

By 10:59:00 , , , ,


Yesterday we broke the highest temperature on record for February in the place we live. It got up to 45℃ which google tell me is also (113℉). Needless to say we did out best to keep cool by staying inside. But I got all inspired, inspired enough to go get my tripod from the car, so I could get photos I needed to play around with. 
My sister was kind enough to let me photograph her eye, which took a while as we both kept falling onto the bed in giggles. Then I needed a person. Who was wiling to dress up in black, me. My other sister did what I told her to do with the camera, (she is really good at that) and We managed to get some photos I was happy with. I used both these shots and another of Jane's eye, so I had one focused on her lashes and one on her iris. 



 And finally it all came together with lots of photoshop layers, experimentation, and fun. I think it looks book cover-ish, or like some story inspiration. Anyway I was quite pleased with the final result. I have called it "Trapped in my Mind."

    That is neat!

    We've also had some hot weather here. Has it been really humid for you? That always makes the heat worse..

      We have had some humid days but most of the time just hot and smoky from nearby bush fires... Today the sunlight is orange because of all the smoke in the air. Ans we have had three days in a row over 40... ahh
