A few photos put through the blender....

[Billions 687]

Here are a few photo merges,knocked out as I wanted to experiment a bit with the blending modes in Photoshop. Nothing serious or thought out,but some of the results are nice. There are three or four photos blended in each concoction. Theres a lot going on in some of them,take a few seconds to look into the depths. All from Walking Street or nearby. I would have spaced them out better,but having trouble as always with seeing a preview. Anyway,here they are :

Cool images! Make me a bit dizzy, though.

Very good - looks like the images in my head

Billions, make a deal with you.

 

Take out the fat mamasan and post them on "photo.net" in high res for large prints and I will buy some to put on my wall. I've been looking for this kind of artwork to decorate my den.

 

Send me a PM to let me know once done.

You might have a future in advertising. Don't laugh (too much) as there's big money in it.

The fat mamasan? I suppose you mean the heavy beast in the first photo below?

 

Here's the three photos which when merged together make the image used above. I could replace any of them with any others,no worries.

 

If you want some as high pixel JPEGs I could email you a handful. I'll bang a few more out next weekend.

 

I pre-processed these ones with light leaks,but could leave them with original colouring to make the output image brighter.

Sabaidii2...my working days are over.....happily retired and hope never to have to work again.

Here are three more components,which made up another of the blended images above. You can see how much information is shared in the final layer....different blend modes and opacity values between each layer combine to produce the output image.

 

Again,the images were pre-processed before being melted together.

 

The first image is the Playgirls sign on Walking Street. I distressed it a bit with dirt and scratches to make it grungy.

 

The second photo is a transexual hooker being taken into custody for some infraction,again on Walking Street. This one went through a programme called "Retrographer" which makes everything look dated.

 

The third photo is the Whats Up neon on Walking Street...but its never illuminated. It used to be outside their club in Soi 15 but moved when the big metal question mark replaced it. Again,it went through the Retrographer filter before being merged.

Cool stuff. I like them without the blender as well...

[Billions 687]

Thanx Patna.

 

Here are more sets of components which made up two of the montages in the opening post.....

 

These three.....

If looks could kill....(photo #2)!

 

Heres another set of three components,pre-merge but all slightly processed.
