A stroll through autumn

Edited for Smile on Saturday's #photo collage theme

 

Never tried making a collage before. A really interesting exercise, trying to collate which images to use and in what positions, with what colours etc etc. fascinating, although possibly more tricky than I'd thought.

 

The individual images were all in-camera monochrome shots, with colour overlays added in in post processing. Taken with a helios lens during a walk through an early autumnal Winkworth Arboretum (Godalming, Surrey, UK) a few weeks ago. Individually, these images may not quite have made the grade, but they seemed to work as a macro collection.

 

(The collage was created in affinity, with individual images having fairly minimal processing including being slightly enhanced in CEfex. The background [intended to be a slightly abstract tree, though not fully sure that comes across] was created with a spray brush in affinity and then a Cezanne-based impression effect in Topaz.)

 

Another super, interesting theme from the group. Happy SoS! Thanks for looking :-)
