PROJECT TWELVE.. or THIRTEEN*

 Jordan's (and Adam's) engagement pictures.. From her Facebook, they were all "doctored" pretty much so I couldn't do too much to them but I messed a bit here n there... (Set as B&W and fx set, wish they weren't but thems the breaks)  The above picture my effect via PdN  called threshold works along the same lines as stencil.. Pretty much one in the same I guess..

This idea culled from the idea from Jordans senior picture project, put one picture in tile and use the same as the inner picture, with the difference being there are two different pix...

This ones gonna hurt, or it would have had I kept it as original.. The heart got inverted for this one.. Thought the needle going through Adams head might be thought of as a voodoo experiment, so I inverted the picture..

The "wholly crap did you run out of ideas" picture and the answer is no I didn't run out of ideas.. Quite the opposite, sometimes an idea explodes and rather than stop it I go with it..   The very start of the idea here, this was just the start, I thought I'd include the genesis of an idea..

The original picture with the character painting a heart..  With the original being the heart only.. This original picture was picked out of all the ideas to use eventually for something sometime..  Buried in the "poroject X" flashdrive.. Just hoping to someday be used.. I'm not sure what caught my eye about it..

Then the use of all the different effects take off.. Why put them all here??  I couldn't decide if there were any really good or if they all just weren't very good at all.. So rather than pick what I thought was good or not, I included the whole run..

The film noir just had to be included..

Then I got creative and exed out the lil dude and just kept the heart only..

Sun rays..  There were two but I posted  this one..

The sandstone caverns (?) are the place for this one.. I like to do things like this one once in a while.. Get's my hands to test their steadiness when manipulating pixels one at a time..  Another "wish I had this one in colour" picture..

But here's the B&W  shot... Loses something in the translation but....

This one was just a lark type of thing.. I wanted the sun to colour this picture and here you see  it does..

The "missing piece" picture part two.. Three pictures in one..

This one again was part of the package deal of addons or plugins.. This is Mirror..

This next one is the dreamscape setting after I turned the picture upside down..

The tile effect set with the shot of the rings with another picture inside..

The puzzle and then the hands picture in the "missing piece"...

Another three layer picture...

And the final picture before supper time..  Took me a while to set the picture up.. Got it, set it.. There it is then..

 This was the final idea.. You don't know how badly I wanted the colour proof on this one...

 This was the obvious choice for this idea.. Everything matched up almost perfectly..

And then the B&W version just so it fit right..

So there you have it, some added and some taken down.. The original entry was supposed to be a draft until all my ideas were exhausted or at least until I thought I had enough to feel good about this entry.. I pushed the publish link and thought I pushed the save link.. But tonight it is publish for good this time.. I think.. . I guess we'll see..  A return of the die nasty..

(* One last change in the entry title and the reason is this is what the project was called in Picasa 3.. Not for any other reason than I had no idea what to call it and I never name anything the obvious.. I mean come on..)
