Taking on a Challenge ... by Weezilou

Taking on a Challenge ...

Not having a specific 3rd photo for the evening, I read about adding a new sky to the backdrop and came away with this. I'm not entirely sure I'm clear with the specifics, but I used the magic wand tool in PS to grab all the open areas through the blossoms as well as the background. I did a c/p of the flowers onto the clouds, tried to get the lighting on the clouds to match the light on the blossoms, and then put a lavender filter (set low) over all.

I have the before and after in two albums for comparison... http://365project.org/Weezilou/album-excess/2015-02-10
Nice work Louise! I've never tried anything so bold!

Great job on the editing! Lovely tones and softness. Doug bought me photoshop elements 13. It will take a while to learn all the detailed stuff I can do! (I may try to take a pic of me sitting, wearing shorts, and then put me on my snowy deck chair!)
