About the Image(s)



Located on highway 152 going over Pacheco Pass in central California, is a really neat museum of old farm equipment, etc. There are dozens of old vehicles, farm tractors, etc. that are on display. For this month I chose to show the 3 images done for the creative one....very simple....change the image to a monochrome and save. Paste it on top of the original and then with the erase tool, erase only the truck....then merge the 2 layers together and add an effective border.....

I like how the black and white surrounding the color contributes so well to the aged impression I get from this.

A sharper image would better meet my taste though.   Posted: 05/09/2021 00:43:04



 
Simple but effective. I too would like to see the truck sharper.   Posted: 05/25/2021 16:18:27

I agree, it needs to be sharper but I do enjoy how youve removed colour in the background so the rusty vehicle stands out   Posted: 05/25/2021 16:19:41

I also agree, the truck needs to be sharper. However, as for the background if it were mine I think I would have decreased the opacity of the trees and ground by about 70% just to give it a more ralistic feel.   Posted: 05/25/2021 18:48:54



 
It is the easy way to have the truck stand out from the background.Simple but effective :)   Posted: 05/30/2021 02:23:04
