Macro Abstract

 Doorknob; 9.29.2010; 3:02 pm; Bannack, MT; f/4.5; 1/25; Sony DSC-HX1

 Peeling Paint; 9.29.2010; 9:37 a.m.; Dubois, ID; f/8.0; 1/500; Sony DSC-HX1

 

Using the adjustments layers in Photoshop, I blended these two photos together. to create a Macro Abstract. I used the overlay blending mode I really liked the effect that the peeled paint gave the doorknob. It gave it a nice texture and brightened up the overall colors of the picture.

Textured Wall; 9.29.2010; 1:07 p.m.; Bannack, MT; f/3.2; 1/250; Sony DSC-HX1

 

I combined these two images by using the Overlay blending mode in Photoshop. I adjusted saturation levels to brighten the image a bit and was happy with the texture that the wall gave to the overall look.
