A Pair of Pachyderms (Mother & Nine-Month Son


	A Pair of Pachyderms (Mother & Nine-Month Son PSE Procedure: meticulously remove from the photo everything but the elephants with the black paintbrush, use levels, saturation, sharpening, accent edges, and cloning. With the nik Color Efex Pro 2 filters, adjust sunlight, brilliance and warmth. Create a moon wth a FlamingPear plug-in. Tint the moon with a bronze color to compliment the elephants. Expand the canvas and add a flood. Nothing to it . . . then again . . . Stephen D. Swihart
