Light Collage

Photoshop was my car companion today.

I decided to blend a few more photos from my travels and make something that focused around lights.

When I was in Europe, I made it a point to photograph as many lampposts as I could find (at least, lampposts that I thought looked cooler than the average lamppost). Some of my favorites were taken in Paris, so for a background image (the criss-crosses that you see) I used a photo of the Louvre that I took.

I hope you are enjoying my obsession with Photoshop as much as I am. :)



Have a great day!

Side Project: Collage

The idea of a collage is not original. The idea of taking pictures from Europe and blending them together along with pieces of your journal is not original. But, I did it anyway.

The text that I have flowed in the background is from my London blog (Christy's London Tales). At the end of every entry, I had a "recap" section, so I took all of my "recaps" and blocked them together for my little project.

The phrase, "Today it rained. All day. I loved it." was how I began my very last entry from London (I believe it was the day before I flew home).

This took approximately 1 hour. And, is purely for my own enjoyment.




Have a great day!
