These are a mix of my own photos and stock photo sites. The first one has 9 images of which all are mine except two, small wagon and barrels. The second one has 8 images of which only 3 are mine - moon, one tree, fence. The others are from Pexel and Pixabay. Several more in the pipeline - just an enjoyable hobby.

Thanks for all the great comments. I got started on compositing about 12 years ago. I was helping a friend with a car forum he started. It was popular for members to have a personalized signature, "sig", which was a small graphics image that may contain a picture of their car set into an image with various themes or things they wanted to be associated with. I saw an opportunity to learn new skills and provide members with free sigs. It was a big hit. So much so they took the sigs and used them on other forums to which they belonged. I am sure "free" was part of it! It was my few years of fame in that world.

I am now getting back into composting on much larger images. All of the ones posted so far are done at 18 x 12 @ 300 ppi (reduced for the web when posted). Doing large images reveals every flaw, no matter how small, so I had to brush up on some photoshop blending/masking skills and master a few new ones such as complex luminosity masking. At some point I may do some Youtube how tos which requires some new skills to make the videos. In the meantime just having fun and always willing to help others when asked.

Thanks again for the encouraging comments.

Love them all and absolutely well done. A great example of what one can do in digital photography. Digital has allowed us to flex our artistic muscles like never before. 👌👌👌👌

The renderings of a real artist. Your vision exceeds mine and I appreciate the effort that goes into making such beautiful works.

I think composites can be more fun than anything. I just don't have the imagination. Thanks for the insight. Maybe the old grey matter will be inspired to give it a try.
