Adjustment Layers Edit

I did an adjustment layer on this photo and made the levels darker. I liked the contrast in this photo better than the original.

Image Blending

I took this picture back by the dry farms in Rexburg, Idaho and was really drawn to how simple everything looked. I layered a picture of antlers over it and reduced the opacity. I took the second picture in Jackson Hole, Wyoming at the antler arch.

I got a little carried away with this post. It's cold and snowy here in Idaho so I couldn't help but post my California pictures from the Spring. The rest of my photos I took here in Rexburg. I wish winters were as colorful as the Spring and Summers are.

I wanted to do my study in color in yellow. This was hard to do considering the snow and cold we have here in Rexburg right now, but I made it work. Here is some of my work.
