Foggy Morning

Foggy Morning, a photo by BackwoodsPhotographer on Flickr.

There's a field I pass everyday and I have been watching as different wild flowers take it over as spring morphs into summer. The reds have changed to yellows.

I processed this in Photoshop with Kim Klassen's Mini May Texture Set - Tea Time and then Total Grunge on Color Burn.

If you were a spider, where would you put your web? In a field full of flowers. :) Texturized with Kim Klassen's Mini May Set.

Texture Tuesday - Black and White with a touch of Color

Having to relearn Photoshop

so I googled the best way to 

turn your photo to Black and White.

I recognized PhotoFocus so I tried their link.

"Better Black and White Photos with Photoshop"

by Richard Harrington

Very nice tutorial with a video using the 

adjustments layer "Black and White"

Worth checking out and very good Black and White results.

Not flat.

After the conversion, 

I used Kim Klassens KK-1402 magic texture.

Awesome Texture!!!

I set it on Color Dodge in the Blending Modes

at 100%

Then I used a mask layer and painted in 

my flowers to add that 

Touch of Color :)

Here is the original I took with my Droid Razr.

Texture Tuesday (too Late to Link up)

I have nearly forgotten how to use Photoshop.

Dusting it off,

I used Kim Klassen's Abstract Texture,

following her 

Quick Tuesday TiP on masking 

to create this to submit to 

the Color - Pop Edition

of 

Texture Tuesday

Here's the before

shot with the android, 

I've got to start taking the NIkon out more.
