What a Tangled Web We Weave ...

... when we play around in photoshop.

Just thought I'd share. I was bored one night and spent two hours carefully cloning thing out of the original and then playing with color curves. Not things I usually do, but since I spent so much time, I wanted to post and see reactions. Just for fun!


The original




The unoriginals - or perhaps the too originals.

Hi Martha - oh my oh my .... this is what happen when you let the imagination run wild .. all top notch creations ... I love all of them ... you should be proud

Hi Martha, very creative! I like them all but the 1st unoriginal would be my fav, simple reason...I like silhouttes. Is that you in the shot?

[icvanore]

I like the last one. Great take on b&w. Not too harsh. Great edits!

[jack russell]

each unoriginal is so original Martha .. lovin' the effort and you shot a great photo to play with

[Chewys Dad]

Interesting Martha, I love playing around with Post Processing, I could spend hours doing it.
I think it's probably my favorite part of digital photography.
I couldn't pick a favorite out of these, but the 3rd one kind of grabs me.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

Thanks Duane. No, not me this time. I have a new self-portrait series, but I'm saving it for my 1000th post

You should be bored more often! Lovely. Just lovely. I like the last one the best, I'm a sucker for B/W

These are wonderful, Martha. I have no idea why -- perhaps the lovely soft colors -- but I think the third one appeals to me the most. But all of them are great! And what fun you must have had.

Thanks everyone! It was fun and I feel like I honed my PS skills a little
