A few more of my photographic art creations.
NYBG Flower Art
Photographic Art
NYBG Lily Art
I created backgrounds for these lilies using the original image and some overlays to create digital art. As I have said many times before, when I post a photographic art creation I say so. And I also include that information in the tags.
Green Abstract
I took some time off from posting to start going through old papers. I played around with the background in this photograph. Can you spot the tiny spider? I created it with AI.
Mixed Bag
Revising a few old and recent images. Plus, a couple of experiments.
The third image is an old exhibit on the High Line of different colored glass representing the color of the Hudson River at various times of the day. Muhheakantuuck is the native American word for river that flows both ways.
The last image is the light house bent with time.
Greenbrook Edits
I downloaded a trial version of Boris FX Optics to see if it is worth purchasing to take my photographs to the next level. I will not buy it. I can do all that Optics offers in Photoshop. If on occasion I want some other presets I have On1 Effects, Luminar Neo and AI, and Topaz Photo AI. What I use the most are Blake Rudis’ F64 Elite panels in Photoshop Zone System Express and Palette Effects Bundle – f.64 Elite (f64elite.com). These buttons in the panels are basically shortcuts to what can be done in Photoshop without the panels. These addons make it faster to get what I want done. Blake’s tutorials explain how they work in detail.
After enhancing my edits and before photographs.
Flooded City
A recurring dream of mine: New York City became flooded, and we live on the 4th floor by the Hudson River. A rowboat rowed by nuns comes to our window, and I climb in. We row of into the darkness. There are many other little boats with lights in the Hudson River. The city lies in darkness, but I feel content. I get into my sleeping bag and stare up at the stars as I drift off to sleep.
I sent in the text to Loóna – fall in love with sleep again (loona.app) as part of their new “Turn your sweetest dreams into art” and they used AI to create these images of my dream. I altered them a little. I turned off the city lights because if the city became flooded there would be no lights. I like to use Loona to help me get to sleep.
Watercolor Rabbit
My second experiment with watercolor in Photoshop. After and before:
Iris Watercolor
I experimented with a watercolor effect created using some actions and brushes. If you are interested in trying it out or to see how it is done go to Transform Photos into Watercolors with a Free Photoshop Action.
