disjointed disarray

I have been meaning to have a go at one of these montages for some time and @steampowered's recent montage was the inspiration that I needed.

After much nagging, Angus (15) tidied his bedroom last night. Believe it or not this is the 'after' shot. This morning when I mentioned that to my eye his room was still not exactly what I would call 'tidy' he was stunned. At one point I overheard Sam (12) telling his big brother that he thought that I might have OCD. Now for many years these two have agreed on very little, but this was an exception. Tell me, is it me?

Spring is definitely springing at the moment and I can tell grass has started to 'come in.' The donks are getting less and less keen to come in each night, preferring to stay out and gorge themselves on sweet new grass. Unfortunately I can't allow them to do this because they will put too much weight on and if they are on the new grass for too long they get the squits.

My Mum and Dad came over tonight for their dinner, bringing their dog Bertie with them. I think that he must be feeling a bit 'springlike' too because he spent the whole night getting a bit frisky with our dog. After they had left my Mum called to say that she had almost crashed into two loose horses which were on the road between our and the next village. As it was pitch black and very dangerous I had to call the police, so hopefully they managed to sort something out before there was an accident.

I noticed both frog and toad spawn in our pond this morning - another sign of spring.

This is clever Jan - what software did you use to do this?
April 20th, 2013  
Very creative! Would love to know how you did this

Clever girl - very impressionist !!

Creative and clever shot. Really effective.

@rosiekind @salza Thanks! It was quite straightforward. I just took loads of photos from one spot and then after resizing them to make the file sizes smaller I pretty much followed this tutorial using PSE 8. I am pretty sure that you can do it automatically using the Photomerge panorama command in PSE and PS, but I couldn't seem to make that work.

Fabulous montage.

Your post made me laugh. This looks very similar to my children's rooms - but then again it looks very similar to most of my house. No-one could accuse me of having OCD. Do donkeys get laminitis?

This is fantastic! Very well put together. Love it!

@dh They do dh. One of my old boys has terrible feet as a result of getting it years ago. The layers of the hoof are still separated. He must have been really fat at the time as although his weight is great now his crest and mane have collapsed over to one side.

it isn't you... ;p

one day i should post a close up of my long-haired guy... he thinks his hair (which he brushes under protest once a week) is sexy (he's 9 years old - don't ask!)...

if this room is tidier now, I would hate to see it before he started! Its a nice room that he has! Thanks for the link!

Cool idea. Well done.

What a fun shot! Looks like my office!

@jantan thanks for the link. I will definitely give this a go.

Ideal shot for the subject

Great montage and your sons' discussion about you having OCD really made me laugh. It's not you - it's just the massive, yawning generation gap!
April 21st, 2013  
You've made my night!!
April 21st, 2013  
Hahaha :oD This is hilarious! They just don't see it do they! Just so you know, you're not the only one who has this problem xx

I've never seen this effect before. It's very cool.

A bit scary to learn that this is AFTER. LOL How did any of us make it through the teenage years and become productive human beings? ;-)
