For Nancy Donaldson's texture challenge this week, I picked a liturgical theme for myself.
Below is a photo of an ancient hymnal that I took in Sienna, Italy.
I also used a photo of an angel from a cemetery in Houston.
Here is the hymnal after I played with the two photos in PhotosShop, using Nancy's textures and a mask.
Here is the photo I took in Ireland at a cemetery.
I paired it with a photo from South Africa
This is how the two photos looked after playing with the textures.
Another photo taken at another Irish cemetery...
turned into this with Nancy's textures and a mask.
I really need to take some photoshop classes.
