Triptych Birds

@Shutterbug: Nope, its a triptych borders, which is like empty frames pre-designed and saved as JPEG file. Then you open these individual files (birds in this case) and paste them over those frames in that jpeg file. Once done copying all the files so that they cover the individual frames in the background jpeg, merge all the layers containing the individual pics of birds in this case, into one layer. Make a copy of background layer and move it over the merged picture layer. Change the blending mode to screen and you will see this effect. Try it bro, its fun. :)

@Stunner: This is cool stuff stunner, and really simple. Give it a go and you will love it. The painful part is designing those frame jpegs with different brushes. But once you have done that, it can be reused any number of times. ;)

@ColNed Pictures: Thanks pal. :) It was same bird and i was just too lazy to decide which one to post, so kinda put them all together. ;-)

@Sriram: Thanks Sriram for you encouragement and wonderful comments.

@Craiger: Thanks Bro.

@MaryB: It was indeed a cool bird Mary, and the feathers were so soft and silky. Thats why i overexposed it a bit to give it extra softness hehehe... :) In actual size it looks cool though with a little overexposure. :)

@Anthony: Yes it is pal. :) You got that right.

@priya: Thanks Priya, i have explained it above in my first reply to Shutterbug. Check it out. :)

@Laurie: Thanks Laurie. :) Havent seen a new post from you lately pal.

@Rebecca: Thanks Rebecca, well i was new like you four months back. :) So, dont worry. It wont take so long. Would just want to share a little secret here with you, when comes to photography, always follow your heart. Read the rules, but feel free to break them at times. See the beauty around you and capture it the way you see it beautiful. Thats the trick i worked on, even most of my processing is way out from the general rules, but like i said i find it good so i just do it. :) And am glad it has just worked.

So, cheer up and take your camera and get out there and start clicking. :) And AM3 is great community of wonderful photographers, you learn something new here everyday. :)

@Amy: Thanks Amy. :)

@Johnny Soedomo: Thanks Johnny, i did that earlier and it was more looking like a "norm", so i changed it a bit and it looked better when i printed it and put it behind the frame to see the results.

@Viewfinder: Thanks bro, and about the border jpegs, you have to create your own using the brushes in photoshop, or you can email me and i shall attach some along for you to use straight away, as i have already created some. :) That would save you the extra work. :)

@Nick Passantino: Thanks Nick, really appreciate the encouragement. :)

@tengtan: Thanks pal. :) I am just experimenting with photoshop on all aspects. :)

@Dylan: Thanks Dylan, i am glad you liked it. Its a sweet creature. :)

@Jen: Thanks Jen, thanks for wonderful comments and encouragement. Love it Love it Love it. :)
