Wow very cool processing Joy............love the cat!

[Maggiemae]

Delightful composition - should be part of a story though!

[Louise & Ken]

OMG!!! OMG!!! Are you totally immersed in the Art studies we both bought and I've not yet used? THIS is all I would have hoped to get out of it, and it looks like you're passing the course with flying colors!!! Your imagination knows no bounds! Wow Wow Wow!!! (OK...that looks like a dog barking, but you know I'm in awe!

[Diana]

This is truly magnificent! How on earth can you create such an awesome image Joy? Are these Art Studies something one can download? A big fav for your talent!

[Graham Harcombe]

You've created a new genre here, perhaps 'Romantic Steam Punk'. It's beautifully crafted though.

[Margo]

This is very interesting. EVEN a flying PIG!!

[M. Brutus]

That is a wild image. And very well done. Fav

[CC Folk]

@Weezilou You are so funny! I have been practicing on ON 1 program. One day I just figured out how to layer and make a composite. It can take weeks, months, or years for something to click inside my brain and I discover that "a ha" moment. I also have the Photoshop Artistry program you have and work on it occasionally. Wow, how these programs can just suck you into cyberspace for hours! Donna Dean (used to be on 365) is doing amazing work and has some of her work published in "Living the Photo Artistic Life". I follow her on facebook. She uses the same program. I just need to seriously study and practice more on the Photoshop Artistic program. So much awesome information!
Anyway, I started this image with a photo of a train car in Old Town Folsom. Kitty Conductor is my favorite add-on.

@ludwigsdiana Thank you so much Diana! I have been studying Photoshop Artistry program and I use "On 1 photo 10 "program to layer. I find it easier than Photoshop although I have Photoshop CC also. I'm addicted to anything that alters my photos and am also inspired by other peoples artistic photo styles.

@not_left_handed Thank you so much Dawn! This is the style I love to do even though it is so time consuming. But it is so much fun!

[Joy's Focus]

@ludwigsdiana P.S. Diana. I use images from Google Steampunk, Shutterstock, and have downloaded different textures from a variety of sites. Also Deviant Art is a good one. (Deviantart.com)

@joysfocus I have become a huge fan of you Joy, as your photo's are all masterpieces. My favourite pass time is also fiddling with photos, but I still have a lot to learn. You are a great inspiration to me. Just love your images :-)

[Diana]

@joysfocus Thanks so much Joy, I really appreciate it. I should imagine that the downloads are not free. I will see if I can download a few. Have a fab weekend ;-)

[Joy's Focus]

@ludwigsdiana Many of the downloads are free especially if you Google what you are looking for and type "images". i.e. Google "steampunk crows images".Then you just save it to your desktop or wherever you save them. I still have sooooo much to learn. Thank you so much for your lovely compliments! I learn a lot from so many others and their art! You have a great weekend also!
