Playing a bit with these Purple Martins on a wire with a perfectly plain blue Florida sky. Didn't spend too much time, as you can see ... thanks to Shadowhouse Creations for the bird brushes.
"In quantum mechanics, particles do not have a definitive state unless they're being observed. Many theorists have spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to explain this. One explanation is that we're living within a simulation, seeing what we need to see when we need to see it."

Taken the same night about at Shirley's Bay in Ottawa, Canada. This is two images created for this composite.
The other one was done with someone else's cup and saucer, so thought I would do another with my own cup and saucer.
My first attempt at photoshop and I wanted to use 3 elements.. Sky, Moon and the cormarent.. I'm pleased with bringing them together in a fashion.. Comments welcome
This is a concept I've been wanting to try out for ages, and is heavily inspired by the Where the Wild Things Are movie.
It took spotting the ever-awesome Rosie Hardy's latest series to kick start me in to actually doing it though - so who better to ask to work with me on it! Rosie nailed the expression I was going for, and we had a fun afternoon in the woods. So thanks Rosie :)
How to get to those difficult places, and ample proof in this HSS that AC badly needs a rest.

So, with special thanks to Joel Grimes for his compositing tutorial, and Scott Kelby for hosting it on his www.kelbytraining.com website, here is my first attempt at a composite using an old studio portrait (my avatar, actually) and an old HDR background. I look forward to doing some sports shots in the future!
A composite image inspired by a similar non-composite taken by Greg Ness a couple months ago. While Greg was able to frame the moon, clouds, and cranes all at once, I was not so lucky. I got glimpses of the moon, but they never coincided with when cranes were in the air. Whenever cranes were nicely silhouetted, the moon was covered by cloud. Here, I resorted to the magic of Photoshop to link together the separate components I captured into the scene I had hoped to see.

Whenever I dig into my old stuff the question always creeps into my head, "What would I tell that kid if I could tell him anything?"
You are going to do OK for yourself but in a quiet, unspectacular way. He (I) already knew that. In fact I took that for granted.
You are going to lose people that mean the world to you and you will never stop grieving for them. I knew that too ( we all do ) but I would have never admitted as much, preferring to only recognize those bitter truths as I was being run over by them.
I suppose I couldn't resist giving some sage advice but I wouldn't listen to myself. I remember making a point of not acting on good advice when dispensed by anyone professing to know what life was really about.
All in all it's a good thing time travel isn't possible. Aside from being freaked out by my wrinkly old self showing up to tell me crap I knew but didn't have the courage to act on, I would have been angered that all the suspense and mystery had just been taken out of life. For all the effort that goes into fiction about jumping back or ahead in time I think it is good that we have to crunch along alone without the aid of a nebbish future self showing up every so often to whine and moan about how I'm so lacking in ambition. I'm peeved at myself right now just for thinking up the thought of it.
I first put this together in 2012. Today I thought about it and made an effort to find the original images. 1974 was taken with a Canon F1 and a 50mm f1.4. 2012 was taken with a Pentax K10D and the 18-55 kit lens. In 2012 I used Gimp to stack the images. This time around I used Affinity Photo.
One of the interesting exhibits at the Beamish Museum is the printing room above the sweet shop. It's easily missed but contains a treasure trove of items from the past including a bench press and this compositing table. Imagine doing this every day to produce a newspaper!
