Surreal !!!
Great idea, Bill... you did a really nice job!
Very well done, Bill; I like this!
Excellent work very cool result
did good
Amazing work my friend. God bless.
Well, what a surprise from you, Bill! It has made a very striking result and I particularly like what you did with those columns. Brilliant!
You did a great job, hon! Isn't it fun to try out new things and see what happens? I like the result you got, and agree with Andrea about the columns.
Very impressed Bill.
Yes, the columns are really great in this mix. A very beautiful result, Bill :-)
Wow Bill, this is a first for you? A second at the most? Whatever it is, you did a crystalline job. It's hard to blend and get such clarity and clean cut lines and forms. This is really a sunset with a visitation from the courthouse and destroyer windows. (Really, the destroyer windows look either like arches from a grand facade, or like the wheels from a very large vehicle. It's a wonderful surprise to see that they're from a ship.) Your capitals atop those columns are brought out in a luminous white, so they feel almost like architectural fireflies---very large ones, but still, like spirits. And the architectural horizontals just fall right into the water, and you let the clouds on the right move right over them---fine blending technique---so they interact rather than just plop onto the image. (My multiple blends have too much plopping sometimes. And yes, plopping is the technical term.) And you allowed little bits of the architecture to paint the water down there, and let stone streak the upper sky, like clouds...This really works, it's like the portholes and facade are commentaries on the sunset, or visitors who add their own highly distinct personality to the sunset. Very clear and balanced, a real triumph of the art. And, with a crystalline piece like this, you chose just the right number of images. If you added more, it would be like inviting a couple for dinner, and they bring their kids, grandkids, several cousins from overseas---with THEIR kids---the dogs and cats, and 6 stray goats. (That's what my blends feel like some days). And when you say, "uh------we only have dinner for FOUR" (hoping they'll go away), they say, "oh that's ok: We brought our OWN!!!" And they pile inside...Families break up over such things. ("They're YOUR family, dear, not mine!!!") That's the problem with too many images. Ruins the whole night, causes divorces. This is perfect. You really finessed your blends. Poetry!
WOW, this is amazing. xx
Nice work - very interesting image.
Wow - this is really cool work, Bill! I really like what you've done here! Maybe I'll give it a shot with a few photos from our weekend in Osage Beach..
Nice work combining these images into this very interesting piece.
Neat job Bill, cool playing.. Thinking of upgrading my photoshop prog.. Mine is ancient now! Rob
