Have had an underwater picture that I found when I did a Google search looking for pictures to do my grandaughters Ariel pictures... found one from www.wallpaperbase.com and have wanted to use it for something as I think it is so pretty all by it's self. So I took it this week along with some pictures I had taken at the Monterey Aquarium of the jelly fish.. we all love those jelly fish! And here is what I did!
First I took a jelly fish picture that didn't have but one jelly fish & cut it so all I had was water!
My Google search picture from www.wallpaperbase.com!
Jelly fish picture # 1
Jelly fish picture # 2
Jelly fish picture # 3
Took them all to GIMP ~ using the blue solid water as my base.
I put the "find" as a second layer and faded it just a little.
Than added the jelly fish in layers and played.
Put a "water layer" over it all and faded it.
And here is what I have so far:
Took all of this to Picnik and brightened it, than turned it black and white & added a shadow drop frame for My Mono Monday # 49.
Jellyfish sway to and fro at the Codfish Ball
Than went back to Picnik ~ back to the color version. Went to Boost ~ made it even brighter and than to duo tone ( the two colors blue and yellow) ~ brought the fade back about 50 percent ~ added a frame for my Mono Monday Plus:
HAVE A GOOD WEEK ~ TAKE SOME TIME TO ENJOY MOTHER NATURE!
That's just so cool. Very creative job and lovely photos
