Abstract photography(place your's)

Questioner- Of course I don't mind. How did you do THAT? It is great!

^ WORD!




I have space for storing there, it's not my gallery actually. I use www.photogalaxy.co.uk

I just took your image into photoshop and duplicated it, flipping the image around 45 degrees. Then played with the layer opacity a bit and leveled it out.

Aha! I have had Photoshop for awhile, as well as a big book on Photoshop. I have never mastered the program, though. Now you have given me an incentive!

Photoshop Tutorials

Here's a link with great step-by-step information on how to do many interesting things in Photoshop. If you have any questions I'd be more than happy to provide answers. Have fun!

I found both pictures really admirable and I don't know when did you become such an artist?

Try just auto levels, auto color and auto contrast on this one, or moderate by your own on this one. It's much better.

For the first time in life I'm preety serious....

from the very begining.

There is an elderly man in our town. For the last couple of years, he has been adding this gorgeous stone facing to his house.

I think that I am becoming addicted. All afternoon, I walked around town, and taking weird pictures. I seem to like these abstract patterns.

Anybody want to guess what this is?

I'm not sure what that is?

A welcome mat? Sneaker tread? Something tread?

(Mo says "train tracks".)

I really like the top one. It reminds me a lot of a certain painting.... but off of the top of my head I can't remember which one. I'll have to think on it.

The story reminds me of a time I when I had turned my back on photography and lived next door to one of the world's true eccentrics. He plastered his house with signs - signs about all sorts of things. On my way to work each morning I would walk past and read his mind. His entire house was covered with words.

To this day I could cut my throat for never having made his portrait.

a brick type of thing?

OK, I won't keep you all in suspense. It is a part of a manhole cover, that is on the sidewalk. The light stuff is probably grains of sand left by people walking over the cover.

Great pics Phoenix! You are quickly becoming sucked into the wide world of Stock Photiology!

(when you make a CD i'd like one, hi-res images only please. )

Like the one on the top, but still needs corrections...

Hey, I am a rank amateur at this stuff. You say that the pics need correction, but you haven't critiqued the pictures. Give me a clue!

Give me a clue!

Ok, it's simple, (I'm not a pro either :wink: ), go to the photoshop and choose label image => adjustments => auto level. That way, it looks better. Report when you try.

I randomly choosed these two...
