Mattes & Frames
I selected this beautiful Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption to a apply matte and frame. This has been a good exercise as the steps were repeated several times. I think that I can remember.
Close up photography has it limitations and is difficult to "get in" as close as one would like.
Cropping, I learned long ago, is a good method to improve composition and get in tighter on the subject.
I have been using image editing programs for a couple of years and have never understood layers and how to do the things that I learned in the last part of this lesson. I now have my money's worth for this session.
A sky over West Texas sand dunes taken years ago on 35 mm slide and recently scanned and cropped.
My little dog, Corky, who thinks that he is a big dog.
The above two images combined for a striking composite.
This has been a good session!
