There are all sorts of spirits at work in this one.

Btw....I'm getting some web space in the next few days, so the PS7 file should be a lot easier for you to download..I'll let you know when it's ready...going to be building a web page over the next month or so..but I'll have to knock the dust off my rusty html, plus learn a bunch of new stuff.
ps. I wont have to build a page for you to download the file , so it should be ready before the end of the week.

Awesome colors! When I look at it, thinking about going down the green path leads me to think that it would only result in being more lost. It also looks like if one were to fall, they would be falling forever into some sort of abyss. Maybe I'm thinking too much?

I don't know what else to say other than it's beatiful.

Thanx! Very encouraging comment....I learned Photoshop as a hobby. Threw away the boring, confusing manuals and just started pressing buttons and learning on the fly, so I don't fall into generic techniques that get cloned and overused. I have been finding ways to deal with color and light that no one else seems to be using...and makes my head spin every time I try to figure out how to make it work.
But that's part of the joy of art.

Yeah I left a account of mine that had close to 20,000 page views because I was becoming a very unoriginal I'm trying to redeem myself under a new alias. Originality is hard to come by and you seem to hold a mass amount of it I'll throw you on my watch

As always I love your colors. It also makes me think of the parting of the red sea, but more for this day in age. Great job!

Thanx! I wanted to get a 'floaty' thing going....It may, or may not be underwater...depends on how you adjust your perspective...I purposley try to make the images go in a variety of directions...interpetation becomes more personal to the viewer that way.

Thanx.....just curious...have you ever tried Salvia Divinorum10x extract?....talk about scarey...like a roller coaster ride to hell/heavan..thank gawwd it only lasts 20 minutes...sounds like you may like it though. There are no laws against it yet. (Australia just banned it...more to follow including the U.S. Get it while you can.)

I was given ketamine once in the hospital, before minor surgery...I was expecting to nod out or something, but ended up with wild cartoons behind my eyelids and total paralysis....they wouldn't allow me a prescription...guess I enjoyed it too much.

Salvia is hit and miss for some people...always worked for me...probebly why I'll never do it again.

Thanx....I've been exploring light and color from a painting perspective lately...water color and oil layering techniques seem to work well in PS7...a bit hard to control...but what fun!

I learned Photoshop through expermentation instead of courses or manuals, so it may be tricky to explain, since I dont follow standard techniques...I am thinking of writing up a tutorial.
In the mean time,

Use a lot of layers. Thats the main advice..here`s why...

1. Each layer can be edited independantly.
That means that anything you do (color, lighting, effects, transparancy, etc.) to one layer will not be applied to the other layers.

2. Multiple layers add dimension and depth, allowing one to acheive 3d effects with a 2d program. (Photoshop)

3. Layers can be duplicated and stacked to create an incredible amount of control, and some wicked colors and effects.
I dont have time at the moment to fill in any details...but try this as an experiment...

Create or import an image into Photoshop...
Make three copies of it..(duplicate layer)
click on the top layer in the layers pallete.
You will see a box that reads 'normal' (topleft) this is the mode menu..
click on the arrow button to the right of the box.
A menu with words like dissolve, color burn, darken, multiply, etc should pop up.
click through them all...some very suprising things will happen
Do the same to the other two copies.....fool around with the transparancy too. (look for a box titled 'Opacity'..to the right of the layer mode box)
There will be a small icon on the bottom of the layers pallette with an 'L' on it...this is the layer effects menu...click through them...
There is an infinate amount of things that can be done with these ideas...but it takes a lot of practise to get it under control.
I hope this makes a bit of sense....it will make a lot more sense once you try it...it is hard to explain with text.
A tutorial is on its way ,
Hope this is of some help...
