I came by just to see how you are feeling.... this image says you must be feeling better. I hope you are. I like this. It has a drug hazed Jimmy Hendrix feel to it... are you topless? not that it matters, but I sort of get a kick out of thinking you took your top off for the shot.... Well done regardless.
@photohoot yes on both counts :) nothing like standing naked under the trees taking your own photo! the storm felled a tree right over this spot, it is an old photo
@lambda I have been playing around with layering in photoshop for a while, but my skills are still elementary, basically the image with the figure and the sunburst is the background with 3 other images of varying opacity layered over the top on overlay setting. , some strategic erasing after masking the figure, the light parts of the background image remain whilst the darker parts take up colour from the layers on top, there are lots of youtubes about how to do it.
@kali66 I won't go there....but get it! I was a tad on the back side but do remember rushing down the stairs at my high school and tripping about 4 steps up from the bottom and flying down to crash on the floor - tripped on on bell bottoms jeans!
