Body vs. Nature

 Last weekend I went on a hike and took more nature photos, then this week I was able to merge a couple of them with abstract body photos from last week. My first photo is of the indentation of the at the base of the neck merged with a small hole in the ground. My second photo is looking down on legs paired with a sprouting tulip plant. I have been experimenting more with photoshop and it capabilities. I was able to enhance the colors and in my second photo I dissolved the edges of the plant photo so it melded better.

Here is the photo that I merged with the neck.

This photo took forever to put together because the leg photo was really dark while the plant one was very light and at fist they did not work together at all.

Here are some samples of my nature photos I took:

I haven't used any flowers yet in my
concentration and would like to.
















These valley photos I want to merge with
my photo of the back.

Next week I will continue creating more diptychs and overlaid photos, I need five more to have a completed concentration. This weekend I may take some more body abstraction photos and a photo of tree roots.
