Barbed Wire – heath ofee dot com http://heathofee.com Fri, 12 Nov 2010 13:26:15 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.6 Framed http://heathofee.com/2010/11/12/framed/ http://heathofee.com/2010/11/12/framed/#comments Fri, 12 Nov 2010 13:26:15 +0000 http://heathofee.com/?p=1293 Finding a foreground element to use as a frame for the rest of an image is a cool way to add some extra interest to a scene. When I found this lone tree sitting behind a barbed wire fence, I knew immediately that I wanted to compose a shot like this. Finding that exact spot where I was able to get the tree right between the two middle strands of wire and still be able to include two fenceposts took a bit of moving around, but as soon as I had it composed I knew it was a winner. Hopefully you all agree!

Aging Barbs http://heathofee.com/2010/09/05/aging-barbs/ http://heathofee.com/2010/09/05/aging-barbs/#comments Sun, 05 Sep 2010 22:16:18 +0000 http://heathofee.com/?p=1026 I was up late last night with the intention of processing a ton of images, but as it turned out I spent most of my time on the one you see below. I knew from the start that I wanted a bit of a rustic look to it, but I had no idea that I would start experimenting with textures for the first time! Since I’d never added texture to a shot before it was a bit of a learning experience for me in Photoshop. After a decent amount of playing around with a bunch of different textures, the opacity slider and a gradient I felt I was happy with how the texture added to the look of the photo. I also threw a yellowish layer on top to give the photo a bit more of an aged look which I felt suited the content.

It’s always nice to try something new when processing an image…gets the old brain working in different ways. As much as I love online tutorials for learning how to do things like this in Photoshop, I’ve always thought the real learning comes from trying a few things, screwing up, and then trying again (which I did plenty of last night). I’m happy with how my first textured shot came out, but I’m open to some constructive criticism as well…please let me know what you think!
