About the Image(s)

The original picture was taken on safari in Kenia. I created this picture using Photoshop and call it “Birds need freedom”.

Using many layers system in Photoshop you could create this 3-D image. Long time ago I bought A Photo classes from “IPhotography”, they teach you a lot of how to use Photoshop in art.

It is not exactly the picture I think you are looking it mostly art, but I was thinking that some times it is a fun to present something like this.

I like the idea and its execution. The birds are nice and sharp. I think it would have been still nicer if the birds had been coming towards us and/or we could clearly see their eyes and heads.   Posted: 03/04/2019 10:37:12

A clever idea . Nice sharp image.
One thing you could do would be to put a gray wall the color of the water behind the image especially on the right to outline the right bird's head and make it show up better as it does in your original I did a quick one It would be better with lines to show it is a wall   Posted: 03/04/2019 12:54:42

I agree. Sometimes it is fun to experiment and present something different. That is one way that we grow and learn. I agree with both Judy and Robert about the background wall and about the birds themselves. Thank you for sharing this.   Posted: 03/05/2019 18:45:30



 
Your efforts on a new process was well worth your time and effort. A minor item is the beak of the bird out of the frame is lost in the black background. Keep at the new efforts.   Posted: 03/08/2019 10:32:00

I am not sure what is pictured here. It seems to be some sort of raptor that has downed a goose-like water bird with its companion headed for freedom through the picture frame. Neat concept! I like your depiction of it through the clever application of the picture frame. Judy's suggested recoloring the background is beneficial.   Posted: 03/15/2019 16:34:42

I think its very cool what you did, but I would try to get the rest of the picture within the frame too. That might help with Jon's comments about the image not having defined context.   Posted: 03/21/2019 14:39:18
