information on prior picture posts

the pictures in the previous posts have been created using photos I took myself. several are using the same base photo and were then tweaked in various ways until I was happy with them of the last one (the one on top) was the combining of several pictures.  

I take lots of photos and use them for ideas and inspiration. Also I combine photos for a complete new picture. My most frequent subjects are landscapes and various animals. while I have taken pictures of people, I do not feel that they are my best work. Of the people pictures I have taken, the ones of children I feel are the best.

this photo is the base of several of my posted pictures. the mountain in it was also the basis for two others.

these assignments have given me good reasons to figure out more about the workings of Photoshop. I have learned how to change brush presets, tool presets and the use of "Puppet Warp" as well as the other transform tools in the process of doing these assignments. each ane causes me to learn more about the tools I am using.
