PA-1205 Gerbera Fluro

PA-1210 Gerbera Blue

PA-1211 Gerbera Red Edge

PA-1208 Gerbera Pencil

The above gerbera's were manipulated with Photoshop using a variety of filters and techniques applied to stock images. The background was removed in PA-1205 and filled with a solid black color then we increased the saturation level without creating solarization. PA-1210 is a reversed video and color tweaked to created the desired result. PA-1211 is the basic image however the hue was used as a tool to give the image an abstract appearance and we added an fluorescent edge to the flower pedals. PA-1208 is an inversed version of PA-1205 and a black outline was added using Photoshop's edge filter.

PA-1202 Flores/Red

PA-1209 Red Invert

PA-1203 Red Radiant

PA-1204 Arabian Red

The above images are all done using same Daylily. The background was dark and became close to being black after increasing the color saturation. PA-1201-1204, are variations of hue settings and color saturation settings. PA-1209 is an color inverted version. Although the colors are surrealistic, and because of the abstract appearance and striking colors that demand attention, the images are interesting lobby and office decorations., .

PA-1335 Seagull §

PA-1237 Old Doors

PA-1238 Old Doors

PA-1335 is a composite of two images. The Seagull was photographed from the back of a fishing boat some 25 years ago. The location was the Fisherman's Sound of Niantic CT., The second image (blue ski with clouds) was shot of Daytona Beach some 12500 miles south of the first location. I used Photoshop magic eraser to remove the background from the Seagull image and sandwiched it on top of the sky image using the Move tool. The double image was then inverted and the overall color changed with the hue setting. PA-1336 is a triple sandwiched image. Both Seagulls had their background stripped than superimposed on top of another ski image. The original image for PA-1237 is O-1000 (see Old Buildings page). The color was removed creating a basic black and white image> Then the doors were painted (selecting them) red and green using paint bucket at about 25% opaqueness. The image was finished by reducing the contrast to obtain a softer image.  PA-1238 is basically the same image up to image reduction. The image was finished with a Photoshop Fresno filter which created the charcoal drawing look.

Sometimes it is difficult to pick the better image.PA-535 is the original, PA-o536 was "painted" with Photoshop. In addition to color rendering the geometrical proportions of the original were somewhat elongated. Photoshop manipulations introduced a lot of "noise" which was removed with Photoshop's "Dust & Scratch" filter. From a visual point-of-view, the "re-worked" image has more eye appeal. Images below are also Photoshop manipulated. Both make for attractive additions to waiting room or office.
