My brain is obviously full !!!

To create that scene without "checking" via a camera is wonderful Phil - I suppose your "day job" probably helps a little but I'm blown away by it. :thumbs:thumbs:thumbs

Thanks Peter.

As you know my day job is all about detail and it's been that way for the past thirty years so perhaps I just take it for granted when modeling.:roll:

What the heck :roll:….just ordered a Canon 6D full frame 20mp and 17-40 lense, Should be possible to get some really nice sharp pics with them, can't wait for delivery :eek:

 

Phil

:shock::shock::shock:

That'll beat your earlier Box Brownie Phil. :thumbs

How did you know I was using my trusty Box Brownie!

I had forgotten how much I enjoyed Pen Y Bryn. You have created some remarkably effective scenes………and thats before the enhancements……..now that I am dipping my toe into Photoshop Elements I can better apprciate what a super job you do.:thumbs

Back to my marching ants……once I have mastered them hopefully I will be ready to post an intelligent question in the right forum!:lol:

If I remember right, Elements has'nt got Paths?

I am afraid I dont know what "Paths" are:???::???::oops: but I couldnt find them in the Editor menu

Sorry, I meant to say Layers, go to "WINDOW" top bar and if you've got them they should be there with Paths, History etc.

 

Phil

Warning Thread Hijack in progress:roll:

I doubt that Elements has Paths in it.

GIMP does have paths in it and I am seriously considering making a new Tutorial about GIMP as it seems to have all the facilities needed to produce photos nearly as good as Phil's. All I need now is a decent camera and the ability to take decent photographs:oops:.

Hijack over.

Simon

Hi Simon, I had a feeling that there were no layers and paths as I had it on my old pc, I must have deleted it when I upgraded to PS. GIMP looks good though, almost a clone of PS….Hijack when you want to.:lol:

 

Phil

Hi Phil and Simon

Should I start a new thread?……..I dont want to clutter your layout thread Phil. I was going to ask some questions linked to Simons tutorial.

For now……In Elements V10  in [Edit] [Window]   there is a  Layers option.

Regards from Vancouver

Go over to Simons thread John, that's ok, if you see Layers there in WINDOWS try opening it, you should get a box appear on the right side of the screen.

 

Phil

Another mess-around.

 

The last one :lol: Just checking out my new camera, still waiting for the new lense.


 

Extra cross braces now in place for "Health & Safety":lol:

 

That's better Phil - "D Notice" lifted ……….:thumbs

I like the "Tarzan" method of getting down - even has a corrugated iron slide at the bottom. :lol:

Another excellent photo that needs time to study the detail. :cheers

forgot to ask - how did you do the filtered sunrays on the previous shot ?  They look superb.

Peter, the sky scene is for real ;-)

Huh !!  And there was me thinking how brilliant you were ……………………:lol::lol::lol:

Still looks good stitched together. :thumbs

It's a lot easier using the real thing………should have said I did it myself :???:
