A DAVID COPPERFIELD TRICK by sangwann

A DAVID COPPERFIELD TRICK

Once I saw a video of David Copperfield - the well-known illusionist – vanishing an airplane. I tried to emulate him by vanishing a car that looked out of place in its surroundings. This is the result while the original is in the insert.
There are lovely well-kept and clean narrow streets in Birgu and I enjoyed taking shots of them. I liked this one with the curve in the background but the car in the corner seemed very out of place so I sent in Photoshop to drive it out of the way.
The Maltese people are very proud of their houses and keep them in impeccable condition and shiny clean. I cannot say the same with the upcoming generations – many of them just don’t have time or only have time to do the basic cleaning.
Many thanks for looking and for the comments and fav's on yesterday's picture.
haha, Vanishing the car, so right, That will make Copperfield a time traveller.

I remember that trick with the aeroplane, and also him walking through the Great Wall of China.

Really good PS work, I can't tell a bit, even knowing where the car was. My house cleaning lies somewhere in between those generations...I want my house to be clean and do as much as I can and try to get the kids to pitch in, but I am also gone most of the time (75%+) so I have to let it go and not get stressed out about it. :) Plus I need more 365 time!!

Great job on the disappearing act! Too bad we can't make the house-cleaning disappear. Beautiful street.
