I captured this stone Buddha with the specific intention of creating a montage. That was in September, 2003! Better late than never….this montage is a combination of the stone mask, a butterfly, two shots of Verbena and 3 different textures. I did also apply a texture of cracks but thought it was too harsh. It took awhile but I’m happy with my interpretation!

This composite contains 6 images with one dating back 10 years. The base is a DroidX black and white shot of a dead tree captured last week in front of the Marcus Landslide. I then added the following images: a Flagstone tile from my patio, a field of dried flowers, a field of grasses, a rusty car door and a silhouette of a raven. (The other bird is a PS brush). Lots of blending, several color and tonal adjustments, a couple of filters applied and voila! You either love or hate this stuff. I obviously love it 🙂

STOP! Back up! That’s what I yelled at Chris when I saw these mailboxes. I could have spent all morning shooting this scene but there were 3 very unfriendly dogs who became aggressive every time I got out of the car so my visions of multiple angle views didn’t happen. I need to work on becoming braver 🙂
I added a cloud image and 3 images of texture then blended the heck out them all to create the look of an old photo.

A composite of two of my favorite things. Boulder faces (left) and trees. The tree is a DroidX image I captured the other day on my walk in my neighborhood and the wonderful boulder face is near the Preserve.

Desert Columbine is about half the size of the more common Yellow Columbine we see here at higher elevations. I captured this one at the Flagstaff Arboretum. It is my favorite composition of this plant so far but the exposure wasn’t very good so I used Photoshop to “art it up” a little. The texture in the background is made up of three images I shot of the sidewalk and curb at Hermit’s Rest (Grand Canyon) while I was waiting for the bus. I ended up with about 20 great textures during that wait!

This shot of the Grand Canyon was captured with a Canon Powershot and although I liked the composition, the image was very flat. I thought I’d try some filters on it and this is the result.
