Photoshop goes to the beach



This episode of Photoshop Playtime can all be blamed on Ann from SnapEditScrap. Ann adds texture to some of her photos and I always admire them.

 She emailed me the how to of adding texture and I  decided to create my own. I looked through my folders and saw Beaches. Now I like the above photo but not the sky. PLAYTIME BEGAN...


I cut the fence and plant, and put in front of photo below. YES! I do know the photo is fine without the fence, but the why of it all is PLAYTIME.


 Then I added it to the below photo



 Not tired of playing I added it to the above photo then created texture using the cut out fence. and none of these look anything at all like what Ann does.... must have gotten lost in PS Playland.....

    This last one is VERY impressive!!! and I LOVE LOVE LOVE your outrageously cute header!!! I love any and all beach posts because we don't live near a beach and I have never seen one. O.K. one time when I was a tiny girl too little to remember.

    I think the fence is quite cool. I always like to see the results of your playtime but even more so when it involves a beach. We've been inland for too long we need a trip to the coast. I need to feel sand between my toes.

    You asked what we feed the foxes.
    They have tinned dog food, some dog roll and 2 bits of chicken, plus a jam sandwich each night.
    It depends who comes round first as to who gets the chicken and they nose around in the pile until they find it (chicken wings).
    I always include a sandwich as its handy for putting the mange drops on if I spot any of them starting to get it, the drops quickly clear it up.
    I wont tell you how much I spend, but its worth every penny just to watch them each night.

    These photos are lovely, you do such great work with them. Unfortunately I had to delete my blog, as Paul had access to it. I might create a new one...maybe...
    Have a great day!

    You know what - I love what you did - it made the picture much more attractive. But now I am thinking about photographs of things I see - are they true or are they played with? Love, sandie

    That does sound like fun! It's incredible what can be done with photo editing now. I suppose I should open my book and learn some of it. lol
