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. |

| 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. |

| The
original photograph is a pink Hibiscus done in variety of
inversions with various hue values and edge treatments. PA-1332
is the original image treated with a high pass filter and
softened. PA-1334 is the same with increased contrast and
saturation. |

| 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-a is the original, PA-o536-b 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. |

The Window on the right, is a triple composite. The Astronaut
picture was down loaded from the NASA web site. mage
MA-1145, Inner Sanctum of an Orchid, was shot with a Canon 100
mm Macro lens. The picture is interesting because of the detail
it shows.
