Week 36-52 -2015 Edition - Multi Exposure.

This weeks Multi Exposure Theme proved to be incredibly difficult as I have very limited understanding of Photoshop. This was not the photo I had planned but just could not get the planned photo.

It did not help either that my Adobe settings again blocked access to Photoshop until I signed up for a 30 day trial, even though It is already part of my monthly subscription

I used the following instructions received from a camera club colleague Jane Friel to merge my two photos. Open both photos in photoshop. select one photo by pressing Ctrl+A to select it, then Ctrl+C to copy it. go to the 2nd open file in photoshop. press Ctrl+V to paste the first photo you've selected onto the 2nd one. This will create a new layer. if you want to see the layer underneath, reduce the 'fill' command (above the layers panel). It's usually at 100%.

Didn't manage following. Use the move tool to move the top layer around to align it where ever you want. When you are happy with the placement, put the fill command back to 100%. Create a mask. Use the brush tool to brush away the detail you don't want - you need to use the black square/white square on the tools panel. When finished, merge your layers.

These Black Oystercatchers are going to have to practice their synchronization skills, they weren't going to be winning any gold medals at the olympics.

Underground Station in Essen, NRW, Germany

BNSF 4705 leads the H-STLTUL4 18A west through Strafford, MO. on the BNSF Cuba Sub. Nice surprise to see this after a long drive home from Texas.

LNER's 1E11 0752 Aberdeen to London Kings Cross climbs the grade away from the former Esplanade station at Dundee.

Three plaques adorn the northern abutment and mark the engineering service the bridge has given to the railways. The celebrated HST is in good company.

In my Garden.

The droplets again !

THE TECHNIQUE!

I used soft pastels and drew them on some card to get those colours I then used a pane of clear glass and cleaned it, I then placed the glass above the coloured card about 2 feet above but this can be any height really but it does have to be high enough for the subject to be out of focus, the higher it is the more detail in the reflections.

I then used a eye dropper filled with water and placed the droplets on the surface of the pane of glass and just focusing on the droplets and nothing else to get this results, go on have a go yourselves!! You can use any subject material just use your imagination!

Excerpt from concretecanvasfest.com:

Concrete Canvas is a multi-day visual arts festival where local and internationally acclaimed artists alike gather in Hamilton over one weekend to paint murals live across the city in an effort to elevate the visual landscape of the city while simultaneously inspiring a new generation of artists.

This initiative is in full collaboration and support with the City of Hamilton.

In a similar format to a free music festival, such as Art Basel (Miami), NuitBlanche (Toronto) or Under Pressure (Montreal), Concrete Canvas is a one-of-a-kind self-guided event series that brings the Hamilton community together to celebrate art, music, culture, and diversity over one weekend.

ID appreciated.

RHS Hyde hall, 29th Sept 2017

The almost unbelievable multi-hued bark of a stand of three Rainbow Eucalyptus trees growing close together along the road to Hana, in Maui, Hawaii.

We had a real rainforest experience on the windward side of Maui the day we headed out to find these trees we had been told were somewhere along the endless twists and turns of the road to Hana. Having seen a few pictures of this type of tree before, I had always assumed that the colors in the photos must have been extremely intensified in post processing. But nature never ceases to amaze. The colors really were exceedingly vibrant in many places even in a heavy rain, though we never saw any of the cool blue hues that are sometimes displayed as the trees age and new bark sections peel to reveal fresh new streaks of color below.

With the heavy rain limiting things a little bit and causing some spots of glare on the trunks, I decided to try some very slight (one fiftieth of a second exposure while slowly panning) vertical pans to draw out the bright color streaks and create a slightly more abstract presentation of this already otherworldly beauty.

Thanks for visiting.

Indian corn. Can't have Fall without Indian corn!

Thanks for viewing.

I like the outdoor elevator by the Trump Tower plaza. It gets many layers of reflections.

As the tide ebbs, seaweed is revealed in its true beauty. It is not at all the same in a few hours when it has dried out a bit.

this is a handy little screwdriver that holds 5 small bits in the handle. The problem is that the bits don't stay in place. I think they're supposed to be held in by a magnet but it's not working. Can magnets lose their magnetism?
