Bas Relief Butterfly

Gallery: Photo ArtPosted March 27, 20043,707 views4 comments

My first post in this forum. Zebra Longwing from the Franklin Park Conservatory. I made a duplicate layer and applied bas relief, darkened that layer -40, adjusted opacity of the layer down to 50% to bring out background layer color, boosted saturation +10 and then usual processing for posting.

Hi Skip,
I love the effect, it creates a sense of "3D", I'm tempted to touch it through the monitor!

Hi Skip
I don’t normally look at these photo art shots, (& yes that’s my loss), but this one really got my attention. A very well worked image, and extremely appealing and enjoyable. Congratulations upon the EP, I am sure it was well deserved.

Best Regards
Matthew
