Painterly Flowers

A virtual hello from H2 Photographic Society

Have you ever wished you could create the painterly effect and pastel colours in your flower images as above and below? Well this week at H2, Heather (Clarke) gave us a masterclass in how she creates her flower images in Photoshop.

It was fascinating to see how she created the effects using layers and layer-masks, ensuring that the manipulation was completely non-destructive. We had planned to have another presentation in the second half, but it is a measure of how enthralled the club was that Heather's presentation took up the entire evening. 

A huge thank you to Heather.

"Winner Stays On" Competition - and the winner is:


Last week's theme was "Time", chosen by Jeff (Sinclair), and during last night's meeting, Jeff announced the winners. Once again, there were plenty to choose from the many creative images that members had uploaded to the H2 Flickr page. So in reverse order (to keep the suspense going): in third place was Graham (Woolmer) with "Time 2"; in second place was Jo (Cleall) with "Time 3"; and in first place - drum-roll, please, was Paul (Simpkin) with his image also called "Time 3". Well done to the winners.

As the competition name implies, the winner stays on and Paul has chosen next week's theme as: "Light & Dark", and he will judge the entries next Thursday and pick the winner. We are looking forward to seeing what our members' creative interpretation make of this week's theme. Members, please entitle your entries "Light & Dark" (numbered 1, 2, etc., if entering more than one), and upload them to our H2 Flickr page. Good luck all.
