Both assignment ideas come courtesy of Travis

Assignment - 1 is #1 Inventive/creative use of Photoshop(or equiv) on an image. Outside the box image construction. Severe image manipulation.
#2 - portraiture of any kind

But this thread is only for assignment 1 as per the thread title.

Thanks Travis! - who is posting first?

OK, I will be first. I do a lot of ocean, lake, and river shots.

Beautiful, Tegan! And moody!

Nice capture. I like the colours and lines and the strange mood this image puts forth (futuristic, desolate, cold - just some feelings this image evokes for me).

I like this shot even better. Very warm and bright.

I may have placed the sun a bit more to the right but that's it.

my submission:P dino and crow are grace a magnetic polygonal lasso. 3 different pics rolled into one.

overlayed and multiplied on a ttv frame filter with a heavy curves adjustment. crow was added as an afterthought after the adjustments were done and then faded to 93 percent to blend in with the background.
hope you like

this was fun.

Kiley - Excellent self-portrait. Love the blue tones and somber feel
TT - Very nice old car image. I might try to pump up the contrast a wee bit to see if it makes it pop any harder, but i still think it's a cool shot.
pslove - very interesting and playful shot. i love the fact that the subject is just standing there smoking.

lol. thanks. I had fun with it.

marko- i like the ducks. looks like you painted with light.
kiley- i missed that you had posted a self portrait. i like the colors you used. i look at the photo and my mind immediately assosiates it with the montreal jazz fest...::grin:: don't ask why..i have no idea...maybe the moodiness of it?
