The Big Picture

Here we have the original image which I cropped before posting as RIP Angel Falls 12-C. :---->> [link]

This was an experiment for me. I am trying to improve my Photoshop. When working with an image, of course you work the entire image, and there are ALWAYS some areas or elements that are not to my complete satisfaction.

To try to get around this, I decided to make a more expansive manipulation, pulling back and showing more of what is going on around the two characters. I still worked the entire image with attention to detail, knowing that 50 or 60 percent would not be in the finished product.

Then I cropped, or took a "Snapshot" of the moment, and that is what I posted.

The double decker bus mentioned prominently in the story is clearly identifiable (not so in the published version), Iron Man is showing at the theatre, and there are even a couple of thrill seekers in the distant background looking on.

I basically tricked myself.
Let's see a brunette pull one over on herself like that.
