Going Back
Originally uploaded by my.third.eye

I worked on this "creation" last night while listening to the soundtrack from the movie "Fur," about the life of Diane Arbus (starring Nicole Kidman and Robert Downey Jr.). I loved the movie and I loved the music. It's a combination of three different photos that I "layered," which is a technique I am just barely beginning to play with. So...I guess this means I am no longer the "purist" who does no or very little "post-processing."

I suspect this is a natural progression in the photography learning curve, at least for me.

This is stunning, dear Mistress J.

Thank you, Linda! And no, not PS, because although I have PhotoShop, I barely know the most basic things about how to use it. I've tried to figure out layering but I am too technically inept. I think I "accidentally" made it work one time but then forgot what the heck I did. However, I can do a rudimentary kind of layering in Picnik (a program that's like the nursery school version of PhotoShop...or the nursery school version for toddlers who have been held back and have to repeat their first year of nursery school).

Gasp!
This is beautiful. Are you doing the layering in Photoshop?
