Experiment 94: In the universe

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

Playing a bit with filters and other effects.

Experiment 93: Green

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

With a perhaps somewhat uninspiring title here is the latest picture in my series of experiments with the warp tool. (I've used more features in this picture than the former ones, layer masks among others, but am still trying to keep the simplicity.)

Day 92: Flower of hope

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

No matter if we're trying to achieve the impossible or if we're merely trying to survive, we still need to get that silent reminder that there is hope. And while this is no edelweiss it's at least a white flower =)

Day 91: Sunset over the alps

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

An experiment in making an image using only two of Photoshops tools, the gradient tool and the warp tool (ok, true, I did use the move tool too, but I don't think that counts :-) ). And yeah, it's fairly abstract, so don't expect to see any edelweiss in there. (Perhaps I should have added some stylised ones though, just to give the picture that extra touch)

Day 90: Fire from within

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

Within the intricate patterns a fire is burning, the smoke is covering the entrance to the netherworld. The sky is shining, with a radioactive glow.

And all this out of some experimentation in Photoshop :-) And a twisted imagination of course ;-)

Day 89: From the shining

A lot of experimenting before I got this result, but well, I hope I learned something ;)

Day 88: Flames in fractal landscape

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Bamboo

Playing with "fractal brushes" again :-) And yeah, fractal landscapes refer to the brushes rather than the landscape, the landscape is not fractal in and of itself.

Day 87: Effects

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

Playing around a bit with some effects, so that's the name of today's picture.

Day 86: The sign

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

Still experimenting with "fractal brushes".

Day 85: A distant reality

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

Sometimes when you look out into space you can see strange things, I'd be surprised if you've seen something like this though :)
This is not at all like what I started out making, but I like the way it turned out so I'm not sorry about that.

Day 84: Interstellar flight

Created in Photoshop CS3 using a Wacom Intuos 3

Playing with some "fractal brushes" today too, it's great fun so I'd not be surprised if that happens again.

Day 83: Futuristic fractals

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

I read a tutorial somewhere about making brushes from fractals generated by the program Apophysis (http://www.apophysis.org/ ) and got inspired and ended up with this. While there are several things I'd like to do better another time I'm really happy with the way it turned out.

Day 82: Old inspiration

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

I wanted to do something Viking Age style, and here it is
, somewhat inspired by the so called "Mammen style". (Which you can read more about here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mammen_style and see a pic of here: http://www.wadbring.com/historia/undersidor/leksberg.htm#mammen

Day 81: Enter the sphere

Created in Photoshop CS3 using a Wacom Intuos 3

One could write all sorts of intelligent things about this one, but right now I'm too tired (take a look at the clock ;-) , and that was half an hour ago, and it's AM, not PM).
I'll however say that it's mostly some drawings and effects, but also a 3D model and in the end I took a photo and manipulated a bit.

Day 80: Deconstructing fire 2

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

Experimenting with fire and a different style of image.
Photomanipulation and drawing upon that.

Day 79: Fire and apples

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

If you're looking for the apples I got to tell you that it's the flowers I'm talking about, they're apple flowers ;-)
Photomanipulation and a few effects.

Day 78: Deconstructing fire

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

It's fun to play with fire, and when it's digital it's not very dangerous either.
Photomanipulation and some paths for the "idealised" fire.

Day 77: Balloon over river

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos

Exploring the bright summer landscape in a hot air balloon.
