I combined 2 images sort of like you would a texture overlay. One was a fire in the mist style image and the second was a bird blur.
Bosque Fire and Birds
I combined 2 images sort of like you would a texture overlay. One was a fire in the mist style image and the second was a bird blur.
Love the look Denise. The composite really gives it a surreal feeling. One of those amazing Bosque scenes with the signature colors. Very nice.

I like the kinetic energy of this image, Denise, although the blurred birds could be a tad more opaque for my taste. Love the fire in the mist feel of the wading birds!
Wow. That is full of energy and hot color! What a great combination of images. I do like the subtle white snow geese adding just a bit of contrast between the flame orange upper and lower parts of the composition.
It does have a nice feel and energy. Great light and color. The combination works, but I might try toning down, or fading the flying birds image a bit.
This does have a surreal feel to it! The composite is very effective here... almost has a story behind it. I like the golden color and feel of fire and mist.
Denise, this is a wonderful combo. Very nicely done! :)
Thanks folks, I loved the sense of chaos with the birds being a bit more pronounced. It could be toned down for a more subtle look.:)
I really like this very dramatic image and cannot beat the colors.
Nice image and application, Denise.
Might have done a slight crop to the top, if it were mine, but ...:)
Very striking Denise, and just love the blurred bird effect. Very well created.
Lovely, and powerful image, Denise. Well seen and created!
Thanks John H, I appreciate it and I do love the colors so thanks.
Mark F, Nice to have you back.
Stuart, I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Hope to see you post something here again.
John I, Always a pleasure to know you are out there looking in on us folk here at BPN. Hope your season was a good one and I am looking forward to seeing some of your images.
Beautiful work, Denise. I'll bet both images would stand on their own very well, but combined like this...Wow! :) Love the lighting and feel. Part of me wishes the FG birds were just a little larger in comparison to the blurred ones. Well done!

Your image combination and your expertise absolutely ROCK!!
