Thanks to all who remember me, and Hello to anyone I haven't met before.

I just wanted to put something up so that people will know I haven't forsaken photography, or photographic based art for my studies in digital film/video and 3D work.

I don't expect to have much free time, or to be anywhere near as active as I was in the past (sorry PC no time for tutorials right now), but I will stop by as much as time permits.

For those who are interested, or wondering...

The image posted is comprised of five photographs (my own for those who do not know me yet, because i would not work with anything else). The original is 2550 x 3600 @ 300 PPI and is at least 20 layers deep over three or four iterations during the creation process. It includes textures made from the same photographs, some layers that were created in Painter 7 (also from the original photographs), a variety of hue/saturation - level - curve adjustments along with some lighting effects. A number of masks created using Photoshop's pen tool and a touch of Photoshop's liquify filter along with some brushing with the old Wacom.

I know there is more, but I cannot remember it all right now.

BTW... There is a lot of interesting work posted that has been posted lately. I wish I had time to comment on it all. Maybe soon.

Thanks Again
Alpha
