GUMNUTS

Playing with Photoshop filters. Original photo of the gumnuts is the first, followed by several orange transformations!

This post is part of the Monday Mellow Yellows meme,
and also part of the Mandarin Orange Monday meme.

  1. First of all the gumnuts are a very cool looking plant! I like your digitized versions, probably the last two best with the contrasting background colors. How do you change the color of the background without changing the foreground?

  2. Hello, Jane. To select the background (sky) only, I used the "magic wand" selection tool in Photoshop. This selects the whole of the sky (which is more or less the same shade) and then I can change the colour and texture of background only.

  5. I love the smell of the various Eucalyptus trees, I wish I could get a sniff. I like your color manipulations and the textural details when transformed into a sketch.
