Photo Manipulations

This group is for those who CREATE THEIR OWN WALLPAPERS

Photo manipulations or airbrushing can be dated back to the 1860’s when a photo of Abraham Lincoln was manipulated using the body from an image of John C. Calhoun. With today’s image editing software and digital cameras anyone can enjoy photo editing. This group is for those who CREATE THEIR OWN WALLPAPERS to upload. The images can be of just about anything you like as long as it is of at least three elements or more blended together to create something new.

Wallpaper Description:

...with some dark leaf shadows thrown in. :D

Every year I like to create a few wallpapers using Autumn leaves and a kaleidoscope tool. I take photos of leaves especially for this purpose.

Most of the time, I like to leave some recognizable leaves or leaf pieces in the design. This wall is an exception. It's easy to see leaf stems in this design as well as dark shadows made by some of the leaves, which I photographed in late afternoon sunlight. But the leaves themselves are very blended in.

Even though individual leaves don't show up well, I liked the zigzag pattern of the leaf stems so much that I decided to go with it. I was also happy with the red "bowtie" butterfly shapes that are between the two zigzags.

PS. The photo I used for this wallpaper had Sweetgum, Beech, Turkey Oak, Norway Maple, and Red Maple leaves in it, among others.

PPS. I made one other wallpaper from the same leaf photo that looks totally different! Here's the link to "Leafy Autumn Angels":
