Photo manipulations

Aka Damsel in Distress. I did manage to escape without harm. Had a lot of fun creating this in Photoshop Elements. My initial rendition did not have flames, but later decided that the dragon should be throwing flames and was finally able to create some reasonably acceptable ones. It's a composite of three different shots, an old 35mm photo of rocks that I shot in Joshua tree in 2001, a wooden dragon which I shot and turned red, and me shot posed (against a blank wall) defensively, plus the flames which I painted in PSE.

Pesky gulls, they will steal anything. This enterprising one has grabbed the clock from Big Ben and is flying off with it. Created with Photoshop Elements from two very old 35mm scanned negatives .

This reflection was used to generate colorful iterations shown in my set "Photo Manipulations. The picture was taken in James D. Martin Wildlife Park, a wetland that is part of the Coosa River Watershed, Gadsden, Alabama.

Photoshop Elememts was used to color change a photo of ripples in water, then four copies were rotated or flipped and put together the make this pattern. The photo used to produce this image is Reflection C in my set called Photo Manipulations.
