Fun With Textures (click for larger view)
Description: Set out to learn about textures today. I wanted to be able to produce a peeling skin looking effect and this is what I came up with.
There are two images. The first is the image of my head. Yes, it’s another self portrait. The second is the image of the cracked paint. The cracked paint layer is set above the face layer. The cracked paint layer is using the overlay mode. I also adjusted levels, colors and a few other minor adjustements and there you have it my experiment with textures.
About the project: The ‘Things I Saw’ photography project began January 7, 2008. Since then I have shot, edited and posted one photograph per day – every day. As of January 01, 2010 I had taken a total of 26,204 images, 726 of them made it to the Things I Saw photo gallery. Take a look at all of Things I Saw photo galleries here.
