Fun...fun...fun...Photography Art

It's Photo Art Friday!

Roll mouse over to see original photo

I took this photo during the day at a friend's house.  I was in her backyard photographing some of her cool bird feeders and looked up and thought that it was a great shot.  I decided to give it a bit of a dark side look and feel to it. 

I first desaturated the photo.  I used SkeletalMess textures "There be Ghosts"  blending mode Multiply at about 80% and Shadow House Creations "BlueTopia", blending mode Color Legacy at 100%.  Then I used my owl paint brush to add the owl.

Here's is another version...I made the owl's eyes glow (sparkle) and added a few sparkling stars with "Sparklies Brushes by Project GimpBC" in GIMP.  Which do you prefer...without the eyes or with the eyes glowing?  I can't make up my mind, so I'd love to hear what your choice would be.

Lunar Monster boxes are particularly rare and difficult to capture, as one can only do this once every Blue Moon. This Lunar box is also magical because it possessives the ability to lift ones spirits by simply lifting it's lid.

Inside, miraculously enough, are Beatles lyrics!! We've never seen anything like this before. Look what we discovered inside...

"And we all shine on...like the Moon and the stars and the Sun."
See, you're smiling already!

This creature measures approximately 5" tall and 4.5" in diameter and features hand carved crescent moon relief and glow in the dark stars made out of polymer clay.
