Add Interest To Holiday Snaps
Hi Folks,
Back from a recent holiday where I took many holiday snaps (memories for my wife and I - simple images that were taken on a point & shoot basis without too much thought about composition, etc.) which I thought my be brought to life for others to view by using framing techniques. Then I remembered that Tony had created a lovely montage effect entitled 'Montage'.
So I started with an original snap image - then used the 'Straighten' function to improve perspective and horizons - next I applied Tony's 'HDR Pop' effect followed by Tony's 'Montage' effect. I did not do any cropping nor any other processing. Neither did I erase any unwanted aspects. I just followed the same sequence for each image. I am submitting quite a few images for you to make up your own mind about using this technique. Some of the original images might be good enough to do something creative with, but my point is that I feel that if you make copies of all your snaps you can make quite FUNKY images out of ordinary photographs. Note, because each image has to undergo the straightening procedure, it is not possible to use the BATCH function - unless you do straightening prior to applying both of Tony's effects.
Note: I used the 'switch photo' function to facilitate quick processing rather than 'batch' process.
Anyway, here are a good number of images to peruse:
