How the Golden Gate Bridge Was Made by olivetreeann

How the Golden Gate Bridge Was Made

I decided I needed to give Sam equal time with this week's WWYD picture. So here's my fanciful version of the famous bridge's origins. But now I think I need to go back and redo Isaac's! Or maybe Lucy and Leigh should have a go with the bridge too. Oh dear...

Winner of WWYD 88!
Awesome

@yaorenliu Thank you Yao! There are several processing elements here. I merged two pictures of my grandson Sam (building an airplane) with the shot of the Golden Gate bridge. The next step was to put a "texture" on the picture. I used a picture of stars in the sky for that. When the textures was applied I also "painted" Sam and the bridge back into the shot so that the texture did not blot them out. Lastly I added the posterize effect to the entire picture and added the frame. I did all this in iPiccy, a free on-line photo processing site.

@taffy Thanks Taffy!
