Liquid for Photo Art Friday

 

photoartfriday theme liquid

This week’s Photo Art Friday theme is liquid.   I took this picture of the fountain in Fairy Lake in Newmarket, Ontario in the summer.  The children I found in google images and used layer masks to remove the parts of the photo I did not want to use. I then softened the whole project with a texture from Kim Klassen called enlightened. 

Photo Art Friday can be found at PixelDustPhotoArt.   Hope you have a wonderful weekend. I have signed up to do a Scott Kelby Photography walk on Saturday.  The weatherman says that it is to be wet and cool.   Do you have a Scott Kelby walk in your town.  Apparently he has them going on all over the place.

I think it's amazing that you can do so many things with a photo and the computer. Great picture!

What a great carefree and fun feeling this suggests. I remember the days of jumping in a fountain! Wish I could do it again.

I like Scott Kelby - can't wait to see some of your rainy day shots.

Thanks for sharing your artistry with Photo Art Friday, Valerie.

Such a joyous shot. The fountain is really cool and the fact you added the kids into the scene really made it extra special. I have no clue how to use a layer mask.
