Description Hi everyone! Here's a manip I finished a moment ago, after I got the idea for it. This manipulation consists of three photos; the sky (at sunset), the boat and the misty sea. I also used a few other of my photos to create the water movement in front of the boat. I combined the photos in PS and added an orangeish tint & the frame.

Print available.

Work time: ~1.5h

Info: All three photos taken with EOS 20D & Sigma 12-24mm

Hope you like it. Comments and critiques are welcomed.

If I hadn't been told that was a manip I would've just taken it as a bloody good picture, well done. I love the sepia colour and the whole idea

This is such a seamless and beautiful manip! I love the warmth of the colors and the atmosphere created by the misty sea. I love the movement you created around the boat in the water. The contrast between the light and dark make this piece pop.

photolitherland In reply to ??? [2006-07-06 01:34:56 +0000 UTC]

this is awesome but i thought it was real till i saw that the waves at the base of the boat were not blurred, if those waves were blurred it would be even more awesome than it already is! great work

Solkku In reply to photolitherland [2006-07-06 19:32:37 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. Those splashes from the boat was probably the most difficult part about this project. I tried blurring the, but it didn't look that good so I left it like this in the end.

First I have to 1)find the software, 2)save up the money for it and /then/ 3)play around with it. It'll be a long time comming.

It's real fun to make these kinds of images every now and then. Playing around is the best way to learn.
