Processing Gone Awry

I've seen some beautiful shots on 365 using the PIP app and decided to have some fun with it tonight. Giraffe was from a 2011 safari, background is Beaver Island, Michigan. Then imported to Lightroom, exported and processed in Nik Color Efex. Jim thinks it looks like I'm advocating catching giraffes and keeping them in a collection using bottles.
Great fun! Main album has another HyperDroste abstract.

Tis is a fun one Taffy! Clever processing!

[Sheralee S]

That really is a fun app, I have seen some great images too.

[Dianne]

Very cool.

[Elaine]

Lol so funny Taffy! I like what you've done with this it works great. I have done some with that app but never posted them and you've reminded me that maybe I should.

[Graeme Stevens]

Very cool

[Kane Arlow]

Don't let PETA know what you have been up to. I like what you have done with this, it is a very fun app.

[Loopy-Lou]

It is a fun app, this is cool love your processing

[Paula W]

Very well done too, that app does look fun. I like the tones.

[aikiuser (jenn)]

That is a very large bottle! ...or a very tiny giraffe. ;-P
Very fun!

[Jennifer Eurell]

Very clever.

[Issi Bannerman]

Clever. Love this App, but you've done a lot more than just use the App. Super result.

[Pam Knowler]

Wow amazing image! Clever processing! Another App to investigate! Although I feel I should get to grips with PS before looking at something new. Having enough trouble getting my head round that! I can see you are really enjoying yourself! Fav!

[Emilie Cartoun]

Yes but, how did you get the giraffe in the bottle?

[Babs]

Very clever, beats the genie in the bottle.

[sally agnew]

That is very quirky, I just want to let the giraffe run free across the savannah :)

[Barb]

this is so cool Taffy - love your processing!

[Christina Helliwell]

Cool...But poor giraffe, trapped in a bottle.

[maree_sanderson]

cool shot...well done :o)

[Francoise]

could be a prop. piece for ecological sanity.

[Graham Thresher]

Very creative. A big Fav.

[Rosie Kind]

Like Pam, I struggle to do anything in PS so don't use it very often. Great shot and processing - Fav

[Bankmann]

So weirdly cool... :-)

[Kring Fernando]

that's so cool!!!

[KWind]

Such a cool edit! I like it.

[Kate Goring]

So fabulous, I love the edit.

[Sebastian Gritt]

Very clever, Taffy. A bit like a ship in a bottle. Pulling strings to get it up there! ;)

[gloria jones]

Neat image, edit

[Clare Gadsby]

Amazing Taffy

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Amazing!

[Leon Buijs]

Great processing, lovely image

[Bob Zwolinsky]

This works very well.

[Richard Sayer]

This has worked out well - Fav for the processing.

[Denise Wood]

Terrific :)

[Debby Glynn]

really cool result.

[Jocasta]

WOW - this is the first time I've seen this app - so clever - got to get it! now!

[Filip Rychnovský]

Wow, you post processing skills are amazing

[Margo]

Didn't know you could bottle them!! VERY clever A fav

[Kerri Michaels]

wow,,, fav

[Rachel Withey]

That's a cool app

[Nancy]

How cool! Another dangerous app though. Love this combination.

[Jane Pittenger]

Marvelous. I think you've got your mojo back

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Fun!

[Danette Thompson]

I hope you set him free! Looks wonderful.

[Rosie Kerr]

This prompted me to find the app, because the effects are so cool. Thank you! Now, all I need is time to figure out how it works.

[Kandie]

This image is fantastic!!

[Taffy]

@rosiekerr It's really easy to use in the basic way. My big discovery was the little icon for photo, as you can change the foreground and background photos, which makes a huge difference.

[Taffy]

@jgpittenger Thanks Jane -- I'm definitely feeling some creativity again...it was just so gone before that it feels so good to have some back!

[Taffy]

@danette No, didn't set him free, but now he has a lizard friend in a bottle too -- maybe will post one of these days when I finish it!

[Rosie Kerr]

@taffy Will have to experiment further... all I could do was shoot a tree inside a droplet thingy (lame). Thanks for the tips!

[Rosie Kerr]

PS... really happy to see the hyperdroste app being put to so much good use. :)

[Taffy]

@rosiekerr Yes, it's been so much fun to see them popping up all over. You started us all on this, you realize, so all addictions trace back to St L. not Chicago!

[Richard Hickey]

Awesome picture and processing. Congratulations on making the Trending Page. Well deserved.

[Gena Pegg]

OoooH OoooH Ooooh!!! Love it!!

[Sally Ings]

This is just so creative, love it. Plus giraffes are such cool animals.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

This is wonderful, Taffy.

[Joan Robillard]

Looks like someone had fun.

[Lee-Ann]

I love using this app. My first top twenty pic was from a PIP app.

[Ukandie!]

Nice one, and this app is available on android. I have used this before, but not posted it here!

[Jo]

Very clever - fav
