In the Frame

[andrewb2012 Profile]

This is an recent image of mine processed in SPE - main effect is one from my very last series (before retiring) called 'Gallery mounted textured mixed media 001-050' - these effects are adjustable, but you can more or less achieve what is shown in one click, after initial processing to refine & crop your original.

Looks wonderful, Andrew. Quite realistic. I like the blending of colors with the matting and frame.

Very nice Andrew, like it too how the color of the frame goes into the image, very nice example of your latest and last shared effects!

Im busy atm to get the neon working in the way you created your drop shadow effects, cut-out of the subject and have the background white.
Goal is to have the image resizable and movable on the background, also I want to let the end-user decide which background color to choose from.
All goals reached already, just fine tuning now (and there are a lot of sliders to choose from at effect selection! (Finally understand that bit, thanks to our discussion! ))

Here is an example of the new neon effects (In this case Neon Black on any color backround), will upload them as soon I think they are 'ready'

Thanks Phelon & Arwin for your comments.

Arwin, love your developments with your new drop shadow effects - our discussion has brought out many creative ideas that you are taking forward. I'm glad that you will continue creating more and more effects - having retired from adding to the effects gallery, it is great to see someone like you with so much enthusiasm fill my void!

Best wishes to both of you guys as you continue in your creative endeavours,

Kind regards,

Andrew
