![]() ![]() The bird layer was set to Multiply blend mode at 77% layer opacity. To soften the effect of the birds, a Pattern Fill Adjustment Layer was clipped (ALT+click between the layers to clip) to the birds and a yellow and red pattern was used. The birds are from a Flypaper Bird Set that I use all the time. Some of the edges were removed with a layer mask. I love the brushes by DeviantArt’s ninelvlsup and her Dandelion Whisps brush was used in the foreground. The layer was set to 55% layer opacity so it is looks a little less sharp and more distance. The texture looked like a golden wheat field to me so a little red barn from PixelSquid was added – a mask was added so the bottom of the barn could be removed and hide it from view. A Hue Saturation Adjustment Layer was clipped to the tree to make it more golden in color to match the texture. The Liquify Tool can also be used to get the branches sitting just right. ( Base Tree Type: 19: Fraxinus Griffithi which is an Evergreen Ash, Light Direction 85, Leaves Amount 22, Leaves Size 130, Branches Height 94, Branches Thickness 77, Uncheck Default Leaves and select 8: Leaves 8, Uncheck Randomize Shapes Arrangement 21.3.) A layer mask can always be added if you do not quite like the way the branches look – in this case some of the leaves were too dark so a 30% brush was painted over them in the mask to lighten them up. (For more on this see my How to Create a Photoshop Artistic Tree.) It is so much fun! These are my tree settings – most of the settings were changed to get the tree effect shown above. If you have not experimented with this filter, give it a try. Next Photoshop’s tree filter was used to create this pretty foreground tree. That is exactly what was done above – here is the workflow for this image to demonstrate the steps. Next add elements and/or text, and finally do the finishing steps as if post-processing an image. Just open the texture above a white Background layer in case the texture needs to be set to a different blend mode or opacity amount. There are not a lot of steps to this process. The image above is an example of my using a texture that I created in Corel Painter and used in this image originally. It also gives you a chance to brush up on your compositing skills and try out some nature brushes. Not particularly a new concept, but a little different approach for using texture. ![]() So this is a blog on how to create images for that texture, and possibly get your creative mind going. Lots of times I have found or created a texture I really like that I would like to use in an image but not sure where. In the meantime I am taking a week off from blogging to get some new pic and ideas (and taking a little down time – HaHa)! Have a great week! This week I am doing a reblog from a few years ago – thought you would enjoy it since it is on one of my favorite subjects and lots of fun to use with images. Note: control points and U-Point technology have also been integrated into DxO PhotoLab’s local settings.īelow, you can compare the different control points/U-points used in the Nik Collection as well as those used in DxO PhotoLab.REBLOG – GET INSPIRED USING YOUR FAVORITE TEXTURES Further, more areas will be selected simultaneously in the image. (To define the size of the selection, use the Size slider associated with each control point.)įinally, adding control points in the same image allows for even finer and more precise analyses, which will have an impact on the efficiency and accuracy of your selections. U Point technology then automatically selects other elements and areas of the image with characteristics similar to the selected image point on which the control point is placed within the range defined by the size slider. ![]()
