Beautiful, looks like a painting. Well done, Charles! :0) #256208Charles J. Cangialosi May 31, 2005
Thank You Casey! It is the equivalent of a slide sandwich created through Photoshop. I used to do this technique through multiple exposures on my 35mm, but digital cameras do not allow multiple exposures. That's what Photoshop is for! #1414477Shelly A. Van Camp May 31, 2005
Nice work..Someday I will learn layers. I have adobe 8 and it does have layers....I have yet to figure it out..Love this picture. Shelly #1415081Charles J. Cangialosi May 31, 2005
Shelly, thanks for the praise! Layers are great and add such flexibility to the creation/manipulation process. Just click the layers icon and just it a try. I guaranty that you will be hooked! #1415098Kerby Pfrangle June 06, 2005

Kerby, Thanks for your comments. I was trying to capture a dream-like quality. #1439309Peter O neill June 14, 2005
The girl is nicely positioned. There is a wonderful sense of intrepidness but at the same time a hesitant innocence in her body language. I also like how you have produced a softness and warmth in the ocean. Beautiful work Charles. #1471426Charles J. Cangialosi June 15, 2005
