You could almost think this was sunrise...but no...it was the sun attempting to break thru at 10am this morning on a very grey and dull day

Do not disturb!! I bought the latest in the "Outlander" series of novels by Diana Gabaldon. Once I open it, you'll get no reply if you try talking to me :D

167/365.....not so easy rider

I struggle with layers :( I quite like the idea of doing this sort of stuff but find the photoshop side of it extremely frustrating. More practice needed. I'd like to try more of this levitation photography.

Its not all bad, Vixen :-D But you need some shadows..

Is the picture done like this, you "hanging" there? You (or whomever it is) looks a little darker, I think?

Yeah I agree re the shadows. I took out the original shadows because they showed the shadows of the props we used to hold up my fella off the back. I tried to Just remove the unwanted shadows but it didn't work properly. I need to do more of this sort of thing to get the hang of the layers bit. If I can get that firmly in my brain it will be easier. As it is, it took me 3hrs to work out how to layer the images. I get confused with painting over in black or white. More confusing is everyone seems to do it differently so I can;t just pick any old vid tutorial to watch coz I then just get more confused. The joys of being past the prime age for learning :(

In need of inspiration at the moment. Finding it hard to think about what to take photos of.

It was released on 10th June. They are normally sold out in our local discount bookshop pretty quick so I was totally surprised to find one just sitting there like it had my name on it :D

Whaaat, your not old. It IS hard, working with shadows. I had my share of frustration too lol. I think it might be easier if the shadow were more clear, meaning, coming towards you or maybe the other direction, - some angle who would give it some more "shape".
