Photoshop - Creating Abstract Images from Photos
Some experiments manipulating photos using Photoshop Elements
All of the following images were created in Photoshop Elements from photographs. The basic process I used was:
- crop the original image and adjust levels
- create a series of three layers using the adjusted image
- apply a pallette knife filter to one layer, then drastically increase the saturation and apply a Gaussian blur
- apply a dry brush filter to another layer
- use a third layer to create the line/sketch effect by applying a smart blur (edges only) then inverting it. To get a stronger sketch effect I applied a poster edge effect
- adjust each layer so that they blend using the soft light setting
- season to taste....

For digital photography, we currently use and highly recommend the Sony Cybershot DSC-R1 digital camera. As a backup, and for those really hard to capture photos that it excels at, we also use a Cybershot DSC-F717 camera.
We use Adobe Photoshop Elements to process, crop, and edit our photos, and also use a few other digital photography applications that we post about from time to time.
