Nauti-Dog

[Steve Adkins]

Who could be naughty with a face like this?

Just having fun with a nautilus shell composite.
Original image taken on a light box (old slide viewer) and then several copies, flips and transformations with various rotations.
The composite was then duplicated and used in Topaz Simplify and Oil Paint to create additional layers which were combined with various blend modes in CS6.

All C&C welcome.

PS First day of Spring?? Wind chills below 0 degrees F!

Steve, this is marvelous. Having done nothing like this, all I can say is wow.

[Kerry Perkins]

Very creative Steve, as always! I love the colors and the metallic look. I love how the shadows give the image a 3D look.

[Dennis Bishop]

(Bow) Wow. There's so much that's good about this -- from the title to the image. The idea, the composition, the execution, the fact that there's not perfect symmetry left-to-right . . . Amazing!

[Judy Howle]

What a creative mind you have Steve! Very clever and effective, I love it!

[Maureen Allen]

Love it, Steve

[Nancy Bell]

Wonderful! Love the title, the humor, the creativity and so on!!

[Anita Bower]

Clever, clever, clever--both the image and the title. Well done!!

[Cheryl Slechta]

Woof Very creative, Steve. He has tons of personality.

[Steve Adkins]
