The Daily Texture for 03/12/2015
Field At Dawn
Today's Daily Texture has some neutral, earth tone colors...perfect for your nature shots or if you want a subtle background for your image. I used this texture in both the images shown below. The cat image is a composite, featuring a field photo as well as the lovely Dixie Peaches. I composited Dixie in with the field first, and then added the texture on top, softly blending away some of it to reveal a small portion of the field and Dixie's face. The second image was completed in a completely different way. The eagle had white behind him due to the gray skies present when I shot the photo. I placed the texture on top as a new layer, and changed the layer mode to HARD LIGHT. Then I lightly masked away some of the hard light texture layer from his face and tail to reveal the white in his feathers, as the hard light layer made those areas too yellow. Everything else was left alone, as I was pleased the way the hard light layer mode worked with the rest of this photo.
