The Daily Texture for 05/13/2015
Red Sky In May

Red Sky In May Texture
Today's Daily Texture was inspired by a brilliant red sunset sky I witnessed last night.  Filled with deep red, orange and yellow, it is the perfect texture to add energy and excitement to your images!  I used this texture with this photo of a singing Summer Tanager, as the tones matched his feather colors very well.  First I masked away his background, leaving a little of the fence he was perched on in order to ground him within the texture.  {The texture layer was underneath the original photo in order to serve as his background.}  Then I duplicated the texture layer and placed it on top, setting it to soft light layer mode at about 30% in order to give the image a little more drama and punch.
