Thanks, Vonne! The horses are sillouhettes cut out of sheet metal. I photographed them against a white background and upped the contrast until I could get a good selection of the sillouhettes. I layered the color photo over the the horse shot and used the selection on the color layer to create the Painted Ponies. I filled the selection with black on a layer below the color layer and distorted it to make the shadow :-) #4195482Yvonne M. Emerson April 22, 2007
