Something different? Post your working with textures shots here.

I have the opportunity to exhibit one picture of my choice in a gallery and it must be 20cm / 20cm (7,87 inches / 7,87 inches).
Can I have critics about these options, if you please ? :) Which do you like the most ? If any... :o
Thank you :)
The first is the image I like the most. In spite of the blue canvas :o

Hi Antonio

The cherub is clearer in #1 - he gets a bit lost in #2.

Great image.

I agree with Raylee on the cherub standing out more on #1.Congratulations Antonio.

The blue background ... the ambience is more interesting. The gallery walls are a neutral color?

Stellar question Marta :)

I have just asked them as well as the size of the room and the kind of available light by day and by night.

Obrigado Marta. Muito gentil. = Thank you Marta. Very kind of you.

:):)

Another thing to consider what works are displayed together, and how far (distance between them)... Prepare the two alternatives and to choose the best fit, or discuss the matter with the promoters of the exhibition ...
Que tudo corra bem!! Marta

António, vi pelo link que vai ser na Figueira... se estiver por essa altura em Coimbra, farei os possíveis para aparecer...

That is what we need: compatriots/fellow country people like this :)
Thank you again Marta :)
I have contacted them about this matter but I think I will give them a call.
Oh no. Sorry I will not. There is no phone on their blog ! :o

I am sure Marta, you will like to be around here :)

This is a melding of two images, my kitty and an interesting box carved of wood.

I had to do a little stretching and rotating of the wood carving picture. I wanted the heads of the birds to be atop the cat's eyes. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4039/...53647c1f_b.jpg

Very cool image Yvonne.The box carvings match up very well with the facial structures of your cat...Ron

Very strong image...

Thanks Ron and Antonio :)

This has now become a work in progress.Antonio stated that the texture could have been stronger and i agree with him so i went back to work on it and i'm up to this point in it's transformation into something that will work.If there are any suggestions or other tecnnique's that i could use on this image feel free to give a shout.Thanks for viewing...Ron

i still have the 16 bit tiff file saved in psd so anything can be changed.Thanks again.

First concerted effort at doing textures using multiple layering/masking techniques. I had a very limited texture palette but am sort of hooked so will go shoot lots of them tomorrow....I had funn and I am sure my efforts are pretty sophomoric compared to the rest of you guys, but as with any learning curve, there are breaks in the guardrail. Lots of criticism and comments sought.
