I chose a photo with the fountain being very light and the background very dark so it was easy to use the Magic Wand Tool on Adobe Photoshop. I made a new layer on top of the cloud photo, pasted the Venus on the new layer and then played with position and brightness, with help and advice from Eglantine, until the photo was as I liked it then used the "Layer/Flatten image" tool to put it all together. Does that help or make things worse?<BR/><BR/>T, Yes, darkness is coming early. It won't be long until Venus moves to the barn for the winter.<BR/><BR/>S4M, <BR/>Ah yes, the school-teacher days... I see we have that in common too. Perhaps our blogs are partly a result of not being finished teaching and sharing yet?Ontario Wandererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13766128144351262255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13838675.post-1124793695141073912005-08-23T06:41:00.000-04:002005-08-23T06:41:00.000-04:00I could have used these pictures in my earth scien...I could have used these pictures in my earth science classes back in my school-teacher days. :)swamp4mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03500364141244115390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13838675.post-1124759433546191902005-08-22T21:10:00.000-04:002005-08-22T21:10:00.000-04:00Aside from looking bashful, Venus looks a little l...Aside from looking bashful, Venus looks a little long in the tooth. Perhaps because it is getting darker earlier?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13838675.post-1124743047050890032005-08-22T16:37:00.000-04:002005-08-22T16:37:00.000-04:00I love your pictures of the sun and how you mark w...I love your pictures of the sun and how you mark where it's been. I'm going to photographing the sunrise starting with the fall equinox. It's funny, I have a post up about the moon coming in the window and shining on our mirror, which we purposefully hung to catch the spring sun. <BR/>I don't have as much luck with Photoshop when I am trying to combine images. Did you use one of the lasso tools to select Venus and then add her to the sunset? I can do that pretty well, but I have a hard time combining two photos.robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390482190562312928noreply@blogger.com
