As a former academic, I obviously believe in the value of education. Which is not to be confused with the education system, but that is a different matter altogether. So I always try to learn new things. And as a scientist by training, I also love technology.
Given the large number of people online consuming visual content, the demand for imagery has never been greater. The flip side of the coin is that it is even more important for your images to stand out. By making use of recent advances in technology, one can create images that were simply not possible (or practically impossible) to create before, which guarantees that the public hasn’t seen this type of photograph over and over. It gives your pictures a chance to stand out. The ever improving digital darkroom software is making it easier to create fantasy images by combining elements photographed at a different time and/or place. So I decided I wanted to get better at creating photo composites in Photoshop, and I gave myself a few assignments. The photograph above is the latest in the series.
