Kim Klassen is again hosting her popular Texture Tuesday where we're encouraged to use her FREE textures to add to our photos to hopefully enhance them. Today's theme: open.
My original photo:
I started by using an Action I picked up somewhere called Whipped Cream which basically adds a bunch of layers automatically adjusting colors and contrast etc. giving me a brighter, softer look. Then I added Kim's Magic Canvas texture at soft light 84% and Annabelle texture at hard light 100%. I erased a bit around the flowers and cup and added my quote.
The open theme was picked up in two ways - my open book in the photo and in my quote. As I see it now in the post I'm thinking the music edge is too dominant and need to fade that out a bit. Be sure to visit Texture Tuesday if you have a minute...or better yet, play along.
beautiful composition and colors. I love what the texture does here
ReplyDeleteHow fun to see some nice bright colors this time of year when everything is brown outside.
