Bildverkstaden #41

Den här gången har Bildverkstaden "Tema med variation", vilket innebär att alla personer får fria händer och jobbar med samma bild (den ovan).

Jag har valt att jobba med bilden i Photoscape (som vanligt) och började med att klippa ut en kvadratisk del av bilden (så att alla lampor precis fanns med).

Därefter använde jag kloningsverktyget och hade efter en del pillande klonat in den svarta delen av bakgrunden runt de färgglada lamporna.

Då det var klart gick jag in på Filter och valde Förvrängning och Virvel. Ställde in den på den nivå jag ville ha och slutligen valde jag Förbättra färg under Ljus, Färg och satte dit min lilla signatur i ena hörnet.

Resultatet ser ni nedan!

An old rose

This week someone else were supposed to pic a picture that we could work on at Bildverkstaden. I had my younger kids to choose.

They took this picture which was shot yesterday when we visited there grandparents. An old rose in a bouquet. As always I used PhotoScape.

I started by cutting and then I made it a little bit sharper and made it a little bit more coulorful by using the "Light, Colour (Ljus, Färg)-button"

After that several pictures were made. Boored when the kids make me get up at five in the morning. ;)

At this first picture I just made a white vignettering by using Vignettering in Philtre and put my name on it.

Then I tried to use a function I haven't used earlier. Linjär övertoning(I'm sorry, but I don't know what it's called in english) in Philtre as well. I used it four times to make it go around the flower with pink.

After that I used picture number one and opened Light, colour again and changed the nuance, made it purple and blue. =)

In this last picture, which is my favourite I used number one and then I used Smart suddighet och Brusreducering in Philtre several times. Made it look like a painting!

This flower is also my contribution for Today's Flowers!

Påskhälsning!

En enkel påskhälsning från mej och mina små barn (de stora vill inte vara med på bild) till er alla! Mer avancerat än så här blir det inte. Alla sex barnen har lov och klättrar inte bara på väggarna, de formligen flyger fram överallt, likt små flugor! =)

Kika in på Bildverkstaden och se andras, förmodligen mer välarbetade, påskhälsningar.

Bildverkstad - Förvräng

Det här är den bild som jag använde.

På detta första foto använde jag förvrängning och valde där virvel och ställde in hur kraftig den skulle vara.

På den andra bilden använde jag istället illusion under förvrängning och valde nummer 12. Därefter beskar jag bilden för att få solarna centrerade. =)

Som vanligt har jag använt programmet PhotoScape!

How I did it...

I promised to show you my original photo of the Venicephoto below. Here it is!

First I took a picture of my old photo and opened it in PhotoScape (as usual).

Then I made it more straight using the tool called rotate freely (rotera fritt, den runda pilen) after that I cut out the piece I wanted.

The fourth step was to sharpen it (skärpa) and I did that on the highest level, eight.

Then I made sepia and after that I opened Light. Colour (Ljus. Färg) by clicking the button instead of the little arrow and made it a little bit more yellow by changing the nuance (nyans).

Before I gave it a frame I did put som noise on it too by using filter and texture.

Last, but not least, I did put my name on it! =)

The Result!

And please come and play at Shannara's SaturdayMix! I have changed the easy rules a little bit and the meme is open until next friday.

Venice in Monochrome

I took this photo at the age of 16 or 17 when I went for a one day trip to venice during our stay in Austria.

This picture goes up in both Sepia Scenes, Scenic Sunday, Bildverkstad and Monochrome Weekend this week because I couldn't decide in which meme to put it. I hope you are okey with that.

Don't forget to check out Shannara's SaturdayMix (open from saturday to friday).

Bildverkstad - tema med variationer

At Bildverkstaden we got the picture above to "play" with.

I opened the picture in PhotoScape, as always, and cut out a little piece of the photo. Then I made reflections, turned it upside down and made another reflection. After that I did put some black shadows around it using Vignettering.

This is the result

I couldn't stop playing so I cut in the new picture, turned it 90 degrees and changed the colours. Then I did put on a frame.

This is the result of that

I had a great time, emptying my brain during the creations...

Ljuseffekter / Effects with light

This week at Bildverkstaden the theme is Lighteffects. I used this picture that I shot at the west coast last summer (will it ever be summer again?).


I have, once again, used PhotoScape to change my picture. I started with making it sharper, and then I cut it. After that I choosed "filter" and made a cirkel, like a shadow (vignettering), in black.

Last, but not least I used the effect called "linsblänk" and made the lights.

This is my result...

Visitkort / Buisness card

This weeks theme at Bildverkstaden is Buisnesscard.

I took this picture (from wednesday, one of few days with sun).



And with PhotoScape (love that program) I shrunk it to 260 pixels on the long side. Then I made a line around the picture and after that I did put in some text in the blue sky.


Another easy one from me, but at the moment I don't have much time. Haven't slept much since monday when my two-year-old broke her leg.

Have a nice weekend all of you.

Love Shannara!
