montage

Oh my...first, and possibly only, attempt at my get pushed challenge from JulieCo to do a montage that illustrates my locality. I am so new to layers and masks, and know nothing about blending, but I gave it a try anyway. Challenging? Oh yes! Everything about it was challenging!!!

@julieco Wow! Great challenge for practicing layers and masks. I am still so new to it, though, as well as my Elements and had trouble with blending. Here's my first, and possibly only, attempt at a montage.

Hi April. Only just saw this now. You have made a fantastic response to the challenge. Very atmospheric and really tells a story. Faved.

[April]

@hajeka Oh! You are right. This is a b&w from a collage that I kept on my desktop. Now I'll have to search for the original.

[Linda H.Y. Hegland]

I think this worked out really, really well. Don't under rate yourself, this is nice

[Ukandie!]

I think this is quite wonderful. Well done. Fav

[Stephanie Swift]

I think this is great for a first attempt. I know a bit about layers but haven't figured out masks yet.

[Jennifer]

Wow! Great job! this is great and miles better than my first attempt!

[Richard Sayer]

Works well April and shows perfectly how farming dominates your area - I especially like the two old farmers in the middle and the fact that they are in B&W emphasizes the the history of this activity.

[Rachel Withey]

This is a great response to the challenge. I'm in awe of the fantastic processing. Fav. You're in the final vote - congratulations
