(Main) Photography->Balloons
I didn't have anything else to do last night so I borrowed one of my images, that's already on Caedes and did a little experimenting. This was done with the free program Pisca2 from Google. Let's see what everyone thinks.

this is really cool, using the part color/part Black and White works well for this, there's just a part of the photo that should be B&W where it looks like "smeared" color: just above the baloon. But other from that it's great! (just a thought:It would be interesting to try leaving the reflection of the baloon in color too!)

I'm impressed, Michael! I didn't notice the extra "smear" of color until pointed out. I like the humor of your manip, too.

We make a living by what we get; but we make a life by what we give.
I think this is stunning! The contrasts really make the color stand out sharply.

Beautiful work. Can I send you some of mine for your spare time to make them look so nice. Excellent creation. I just wonder what we all could do without TV or other home projects. Ted

I think it's great. Nice work. That bridge looks familiar is it the one to Biggs, Oregon?

This is terrific. Lots of impact. I like the idea of trying a coloured reflection as well. Maybe it is better this way but would have to see.

The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking. - Brooks Anderson
I find this to be very playful, not only in your efforts, but in it's appearance. The background image is so sharp and the balloon just pokes us in the eye. A wonderful joining of fine photos with great colored framing.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
- Hermes
This is some damn fine image manipulation. Great shot and great colors.
p.s I would like to forget the border.

Michael..it's all been said, except that I must say that I like the border. In fact on a lot of pics I like a border...but that's a matter of personal preference, I suppose. This was a great idea and now you've got me going out to try google's pisca...my family thinks I'm dead anyway..lol

"We consider the artist to be a special sort of person. It is more likely that each of us is a special sort of artist." Elsa Gidlow
Michael, this is on my desktop and looks great! A dramatic image with the balloon. The B/W is excellent and shows off the vibrant colors of the balloon in a very appealing way. The light and reflections add more beauty. The two borders are a good addition, and I like the colors used. Excellent work!

I need to catch up on things so can't comment too much. But I love all of your fine images. I might be lurking in the background :)
Fabulous and right into my favs. A most pleasing image in all aspects. Bravo!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.
Hello Michael...I have learned so much from all your wonderful framing and borders...but I have to admit, this time, I would loved to have seen the whole frame with no border at all. I think that's simply because I love the photo so much, I want to get all that I can from it. And the way that hot air balloon jumps out at me, from the black and white is just fantastic!..(hey did ya forget to write?lol) Thanx for a great shot here my friend....verena

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Excellent! This manip makes that balloon jump right off the page! Right into my favs.

Alway has been a favorite image. This is an interesting twist on it. Have a wonderful day, Michael.

Stunning post mister!! Would've liked to seen just a simple, clean white frame and the reflection of the balloon in color would've really been a knock-out. Fantastic overall comp and a grand capture Michael!!

Picture Purrrfect .
You never see advertisements for string…they make string, yet you never see a commercial for string!!
Filled with admiration :)
Makes a wonderful peaceful desktop and reminds me of the time I had a ride in one of these balloons - magical, when I eventually opened my eyes :)

The question is not what you look at, but what you see ~ Marcel Proust
Great pic!!!! How about one with no frame? Also, Jesouris has a good thought...see what it looks like with a color reflection? Excellent none the less...one of my favorites.

I've had this in my favorites for a while I wish I'd set it as my background sooner! It makes a WONDERFUL desktop! Even my icons look pretty now like little air baloons! The border sets it off nicely too.

I wanted to travel the world and then I discovered the beauty my own country had to offer. Explore your world.

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.
I love this! I'm a hot air balloon nut and this is awesome! I think it could be made into one of those posters with a title of "Respite"....wtg!

Excellent as always. It's been a long time since I visit this Web, now I'm back again. The first thing I did was to have a look to your gallery. I'm glad to meet you again.
