One Four Challenge - Week 4



Welcome!

It's hard to believe but we are at Week 4 now on the ONE FOUR CHALLENGE  hosted by Robyn from (Captivate Me)


Here is my final edit and following that will be the other three edits in descending order and my starting photo.

Please click to enlarge images.



Week 4

(Here is the image of the fawn.  I cropped it and then layered it with the image of the doe and did the cloning to get rid of all the brush and shrubs that I didn't want in the photo.)

For this edit I too the original image and worked on it by using the Orton effect on Pic Monkey.  Then I took another image of the fawn that I also saw that day and tried my best to layer that image into the one of the doe.  I used the Cloning tool to get out most of the unwanted stuff and moved the fawn around to where it looked halfway decent in the photo.  Granted it's not quite perfect by any means as there are parts of the branches on the fawn that I couldn't seem to edit out properly but I do think it looks pretty neat in spite of that.

After that I went to Be Funky and added a decorative photo frame to the image.

This was a fun challenge and again I wish I had some of the photo editing programs like (Photo Shop, Lightroom, etc....) but I think that I still learned a lot just using the Free programs available for photo editing.

I hope you have enjoyed this series.

  2. You've done extremely well with not having Photoshop or Lightroom!! I love this final one -- it's so sweet. and you cannot tell at all that it's an edit with the fawn added. It's just perfect scene.

  6. It has probably literally been years since I sat and played with a photo, other than things like switching to B&W, etc. And I need to try it again.

    I sure like all the things you tried with this one...they all turned out good.

  9. My choice is week 1 with the quote. The colors are clear and it gives a soft deer looking at me.

  16. Even the cropping and flipping of the image made such a huge difference to this photo - everything else is just gravy - and quite delicious gravy indeed!

  19. These are lovely. I use picmonkey too. It's great. Have you explored Canva? It's good for adding text and creating pictures of just the right size for twitter and facebook. I only discovered it a couple of weeks ago, and I'm still fiddling with it. But I think you'd love it for posting quotes on your lovely pictures. All the best, Bonny

  20. Lovely work!! I'm amazed at all the various steps you did. I use picmonkey for my blog banners now, although I haven't done a new one in a while. Your banner photos is very pretty too.
