Here is a flowering tulip tree!!!! AWESOME ORANGE!


Can ewe get a close up please ?....you establish this by moving nearer the tree !!...do NOT attempt to bring the tree nearer ewe...this would be silly and wrong !!
I would love to get closer to the tree but that would mean me climbing into my pc and that just won't do..

Hugs you!!! LOL

OK Neily, Thats as close as I can get!!! Hows that?

Really, is that as close as you can get?

You need some photo editing software - it depends on what software you are using as to exactly how you do it.

I was using something called Picture Windows, although I also have Serif Photoplus, and have in the past used Paintshop Pro, although the more common one is Adobe Photoshop.

The first thing you want to do is create a mask for one or both of the pictures.  The mask is used to remove the unwanted background from the picture (that is what I used to remove the furniture and other background in the picture that contained you).

You then need to scale the pictures as appropriate, and simply merge or overlay them (most photo editors will use layers, so you simply place the two pictures in two layers, and then merge the layers - in Picture Windows it does it slightly differently, but has the same effect).

And voila, you have a composite picture.

I'll play with it and see what I can do. I have ulead photo so I don't know what else may be on here!!

Oh, I forget to also mention that if someone is sloppy when they take the original photo, like lopping the tip off the tree, you may need to stick a bit of the tree back on the top so that the tree has a proper top to it [:)]
