Fun Photo Editing

No new hiking adventures this week, so I'll share some recent photos from the Indian Cove area of Joshua Tree National Park. Some of the photos have only minor tweaks and some have big huge edits. I'll let you guess which is which!






  
Thanks for stopping by!!

    The first and last are obvious, but the others are no more or less spectacular than your normal output... Other than the occasion rather large moon. I don't question the tools of the artist, I only open myself to the result. Your posts are always mind-blowing.

    Loved the moon blending pictures. The last one stunning. Looks like joining the image with its mirror

    Some of your manipulated moon shots would make awesome science fiction type book covers. I enjoyed them all.

    I am a bit jealous of your editing technique. A bit I say because I don't have time to do this even if I really really want to learn it.

    What gorgeous photos! It must have been fun to work out those special effects.

    I love the number two picture with the moon so perfectly captured between the rocks. And that last one. Did the clouds arrange themselves or did they have some help?

      Thanks, Inger. The last photo definitely had a lot of "help"! I like the way it came out... the clouds remind me of a Rorschach test!

    I'm guessing the big tweaks are about the moon, but it really doesn't matter -- because they are all beautiful.

    Great skies! The mirror effects are interesting.

  36. AngieOctober 1, 2018 at 9:48 PM

    Thanks for the 'test' - I agree with others that most tweaks involve adding moons or making a double vision of a shot. In any event, another set of gorgeous photos.

    Peter,

    I love this photo series! The larger than life moon edits are furtastic additions to your images! I can't say which I like the best but the 3rd from the top might be my favorite. Great job!
