One of the nice things about Adobe Lightroom is the ability to organize images in various ways.

For example one can create a "smart" collection, assigning various conditions and parameters that would cause images to be included or excluded. When finished editing an image in Ps and saved with the PSD extension, I also save it in a TIFF version consisting of a single layer.

So I have chosen to create smart folders organized by date, such as Tiffs_2017-12, in which I found this image. All the TIFFs created in the month of December 2017 could be found in that smart folder unless they have been posted to Flickr.

I've done the same for PSDs. Opening this image's PSD in Ps reminded me of what I had done back in December.

 

Toward the end of last year I had been playing with photos shot with the camera and then sent to my phone for editing in the phone's apps. I had created various versions of this using Snapseed and Stackables.

I then exported each of those versions back to the computer where they got stacked as layers in Ps. By playing with blend modes and masks, and sliding opacity one can mix various aspects of each version.

 

Since I found this image again, I figured I should post to the Sliders Sunday group while waiting an hour for one of the world cup matches I am eagerly anticipating.

 

Germany - Mexico

 

If each team plays to their ability, this would be a fantastic game.

Maybe as much fun to watch as Portugal - Spain had been.

 

Meanwhile, have a great Sliders Sunday!
