The Daily Texture for 05/27/2015
Owls In The Grove
Today's Daily Texture is filled with the abundance of rich GREEN I'm seeing after all the rain we've had! And of course, I had to add some of the browns I'm seeing in the feathers of the birds I've been watching this nesting season. I used this texture on the series of four images shown below. By using the same texture on all of the images in a series, it helps to pull the series together nicely. Plus, all of these birds were photographed in the same location at the same time, so the lighting was the same on all {except the heron...he was in better light than the raptors}. On all, I masked away the subject's background and added a duplicate of the texture on top, setting it to Color Dodge layer mode at around 30-40% on each to add brightness. Because most of these were taken in low light, I also made some lightening and darkening adjustments on the merged images afterwards as well.
