Sights in Flight

This week I have decided to go a bit different again. After learning a little bit more in Photoshop, I have merged some photographs together to through a different light on the subject of a seagull in flight.

Sights in Flight 2

The first image is combined of the two below:

IMG_8404
 
IMG_9038

The second is combined of the same seagull but the background is replaced with this photo:

IMG_8447

I wasn’t sure which I liked better so I have put up both. I would really like to know which you prefer?

  1. I really wanted to learn photoshop and your post lately is making me want to do it more! I cant afford it but it would be neat. YOur photos are amazing especially this one =) #mysundayphoto

    1. Thank you so much Merlinda. I hope you get a chance to afford it soon – you would love it! xx

  2. My favourite is the first one. Thank you for breaking the photo down into its original components and showing us how you put it together under Photoshop. #mysundayphoto

  3. That’s amazing! I would love to be able to do that. I prefer the one with the colourful sky, the bird stands our beautifully xx

  4. Wow Victoria! Both very cleverly created photos, but my favourite has to be the first one. I like the the way the pinkness of the sky seems to reflect on the gull too. Love it.

    xx

  5. The first one. I really liked it when I first saw it. I have had photoshop for years and would love to be able to “photshop” a photo. I tried for ages to combine 2 like you have but it just didn’t work. I am now expecting a blog post with you telling me how to do it 🙂 #MySundayPhoto

  6. I’m useless with photoshop but your pic looks fab. I love your original Seagull shot too

  7. That’s amazing what a great shot. Very clever xx

  8. It’s a hard choice but I think I would go for the first one. I love the colours in the background which make the seagull really stand out.

  9. I personally love the first photo, the beautiful colour in the sky really lifts it

    Thank you for linking up

  10. The first one looks more natural to me as if the sun has captured the gull and it really is flying over the water. When I first saw it I was ‘wow!’ The second one looks as if it has been added to the photo.

    Very creative 🙂

    1. Thank you Shaz – I am really pleased you like it. I was worried the first one looked like your opinion of the second! 🙂 x

  11. Yet another superb display of your photographic skills Victoria! Brilliant photos. Really must get to grips with Photoshop myself. #MySUndayPhoto

  12. How clever! The first one looks like it could be a postcard. #MySundayPhoto

  13. The second one is fab. I think your experiments are brilliant and inspiring. You’re showing how photography is an art.

  14. The second one feels a bit more natural to me. I really must work on my Photoshop skills!

  15. We like the first shot! Did you clip it around the seagull or just overlay the layer? Either way loving your photoshop skills! #MySundayPhoto xx
