FINAL URBAN LANDSCAPE COMPOSITES












Another urban landscape composite






BOTTOM PHOTO: Original

THIRD FROM TOP PHOTO:
I did this by selecting rectangles, adding a 2pix grey stoke & dropping a shadow to make it look three dimensional. I concentrated on the two front stands, the line along the bun and the traffic lights. I put less shadow behind other areas of the image.

TOP PHOTO:
Had an email from Julian saying that it (3rd from top photo) was all too busy & perhaps emphasise the building, not the surrounds. At first did it in all colour (2nd from top photo) but footpath too awful, so turned it to B&W. Looks better.

Another composite - didnt work



I was trying to create 2 illusions
First with the bath - bath is looking down into it.
Second - the view perspective is out of skew.
Then changed the perspective of the background. Also added the water.

Some other interim tries:

I may have made this too dark!Maybe this is better:

LILLIES cont - Step 20



Above are steps 19 & 20 as well as the Catherine Nelson original. Pleased with progress. Could do more to puff up the sphere in mid to outer range of leaves - if time permits.
