I know that this is maybe an odd picture, but I rather liked it. I find myself rather odd sometimes. This was the result of layering 3 photos. Can you see what the three different items are in the picture?
I started out with this as my background picture.
The second layer was added and the blending mode was changed to screen. Here is the second picture
The third and final layer was the next picture with the blending mode changed to soft light.
I included the changes in the blending modes for those of you who like to do photo editing. For those of you don't, just enjoy the pictures. Although I don't see anything all that interesting in a photo of an energy saving bulb or a ceiling fan. I do like the picture of the bolts though.
Here's just one more picture for those of you who stop by expecting to see Duke
I enjoy visiting you both. You and Duke. Just saying.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific day. :)
Really cool picture! I love what you can do with layers!
ReplyDeleteNite-Nite, Duke!
Very cool picture. As always. I knew that was one of those goofy lightbulbs! I hate those things and my husband insists on using them!
ReplyDeleteThat layering is really cool! You have a very creative imagination! And of course you have an adorable little dog so love seeing photos of Duke!
ReplyDeleteLayers can make photos of even uninteresting things fun to look at. You did a good job of highlighting the bolts with the others there to enhance the photo.
ReplyDeleteI really like the finished product. I wish I could learn photoshop - I would need someone to physically show me how. Normally I can learn anything from written instructions but not this.
ReplyDeleteI was able to guess the first two photos but I missed the third one. Love the editing.
ReplyDeleteFor Duke, he could have blended in the photo as well. (LOL) I wonder how it will look like but I am pretty sure it would be nice. :D
I also like the "three in one" photo, and what I like the most is that you are so creative!
ReplyDeleteA little award is awaiting you in my blog :). Have a nice day!
great editing ann...I couldn't even make out the bolts but loved the finished product!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing technique!
ReplyDelete...and Duke is adorable as always :)
Yeah, Duke don't need no stinkin' layerin' to look awesome!
ReplyDeleteNeat effect. I need to work on my photoshop skills more. Especially layers.
ReplyDeleteYou always do a great job with your photo's. I can't work with them. I have a color perception problem.
ReplyDeleteWell of course it is always nice to see duke.
Have a sparkling Weekend.
Those photos would be great for a hardware store advertisement (I thought of hardware when I saw it). Of course, the bonus photo of Duke was fabulous. Isn't he always!
ReplyDeleteWell, I started with the bottom post and Dukes big adventure, but I was hoping he would chew big holes in the hose so Mr, Spiky couldn't soak any more dogs, but your ending was very touching.
ReplyDeleteI loved your designer box cutter, someone always stole mine when I worked at Lowe's.
I have no clue how to layer anything, but I always enjoy seeing your creativity and I'm happy you added a photo of Duke. Obie is healing up very nicely and I always appreciate your visits and comments.
Love how you create. Thanks for sharing how you did it - it will help me. I love learning and appreciate that you can show how you do things.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your entertaining daily blogs.
I think that Duke's kinda peeved that he wasn't included in the layering process there... I agree, though. It does have a neat effect. I getcha...I'm odd, too. :o|
ReplyDeleteVery creative, Ann! Amazing layers! :)
ReplyDeleteAnn, wow! I love this. You've taken ordinary things and created an extraordinary piece of artwork. I never though bolts would look so pretty. Of course, Duke is the big hit here :)
ReplyDeleteSandee and we both enjoy you visiting :)
ReplyDeleteLDH, I sometimes go overboard with the layer thing but then I go overboard on a lot of things
Buggys I hate them too, they really aren't good for much, don't give off enough light if you ask me
Beaded tail my imagination is a little scary sometimes...lol
manoverboard well thanks for saying. I've seen some of those videos, I wish I was that good
Ratty layers can add some interesting details sometimes
Grace the written instructions were VERY confusing for me for a long time, I can't really recall what finally made things start clicking for me
junezach I did have Duke in there but I didn't like the way it looked so I took him back out
fullet why thank you I'll be sure to stop by, you have a nice day too
allotments4you thank you very much
Duni Duke can't help it, he's full of adorableness...lol
FishHawk nope, duke doesn't need a thing
dkmiller I should work on improving quite a few things
grampy why thanks you have a super duper weekend also
Anne, hmm maybe I should see if the hardware store wants to buy it
Jude, that would have been a good ending too. Glad to hear Obie is doing good
Jody, I found that the best way to learn is to just start playing. A lot of the things I come up with are just happy accidents. I usually can't even tell you how I got there.
earthtoholly I'm glad I'm not the only odd one. I tried to put Duke in but then I took him back out
Tes, thanks, just me playing :)
Poeticshutterbug why thanks. I had to find a use for all the silly nonsense pictures I've taken and that was it. Of course Duke pictures are another story.
