Making new things look old

More photoshop play, with a photo I took of a moth that unknowingly came inside on my shirt.


The photo on the right is the original, on the left is the photo that I manipulated the color and contrast. My daughter taught me how to create the effect on the top photo.

  3. it involved working in layers with several images and selecting multiply. that is about the best I can explain. I had my daughter show me a few times before I really understood what she was doing.

  5. Judy did you notice there is a 'face' in the moths body? I thought you might have added that, but I see it in all three. It looks like a double exposure of you turning....

  6. No special effect there. I did not see a face, I guess it is just the moths natural patterning.

  7. Now I understand how you did this. Oh fun! I will have to play with layers! A friend posted a photo of the same type moth on flickr and we were trying to figure out what kind it is. I love the double coloring.
