these roses were on my mother's grave, she died last june .. it's her birthday today .. when i took this photograph the roses had been on her grave for at least a week and the nights were really cold, yet they looked like they'd just been picked ..
this is the original photograph ..
i brought in three other photographs i'd taken all when my mother was alive & used them as textures ..
the sky i brought in three times using different blending modes .. i skewed and warped it to get the branches in the right place ..
i'm putting this in our overlays side challenge but i'm not sure that i like it anymore .. maybe too busy and not soft enough for this sort'v thing .
this is a different process i did with the same original photograph ..
Oooooh. I like. But I am also seeing a woman's face (primarily eyes) in the upper left corner. Maybe it's Mum saying it's a good job, and thanks for the gift?
Nice one. I think you did well. I especially like the spiky leafy texture paired with the roses.
