1 Photo 30 Apps Number 6

Today I'm breaking the rules and using 3 apps. Distressfx, iColorama, and Blender to achieve my finished result.
Distressedfx is one of my most favorite apps. I'm in love with texture and this has a multitude of possibilities.
Step 1: I chose Cole from the top row of textures. Absentia for the bottom. Upping the contrast a little and decreasing the saturation. Save to camera roll.
Then I imported my edited photo to add more. This time, Catalina and Edgy.


Step 2: I imported my original into iColorama. Chose Style>Edges>3

iColorama   

Step 3: Image Blender. Bring the Distressedfx edit into the bottom layer and the black and white edit into the top layer. Set the blend mode to Colorburn.

Have a great Sunday!

App Addict

I am a member of AA. I am an App Addict. It all started when I found the app Project 365. I knew this would be the only way I would manage to take a photo a day, knowing that I could use my iPhone, process it immediately, (if I had time) and post it in 'web space'.
This new found love gives me a chance to get more artsy with my photography.
Here are a few recent pics.
My latest favorite, Windmills 1, Original
After an edit in Phototoaster.
Then I took it into DistressedFX and loved the way I was able to get this effect. I'm finding that I must take notes as I work or I don't remember the trail back to the beginning. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears.
 Windmills 2, Original
first edit, Snapseed
Then I went back to the original and took it into Phototoaster and came out with this.
 Another favorite is PicFX, as shown below.
My old friend Photoshop has sure been missing me.
I thought about adding some birds to this last photo, and I have some that I can add in Photoshop, but I need to load up some of those goodies onto my iPad and learn to do it right there. Since it's after midnight, I'll just go to bed for now.
