Bit of Snow today!

Some early snow this morning prompted me to get out the house early and take a few shots of the street outside the house. This one probably came out the best of the bunch shot in darkness almost, with just a little light from the streetlights I used a setting of 2000 ISO at F5, which still only gave me a shutter speed of 1/5th of a second so a steady hand required with no tripod to achieve the shot with the Canon 1DX EOS and a 24-70mm lens. If you follow my footprints you can see where I live.

Using a shot of the street that lay behind me in the above shot I combined it with a shot of a field of snow and lots of Photoshop editing and drawing to produce the image below. The snow falling from the sky was created very easily in photoshop using a simple technique I will feature on here in the near future with a tutorial.

And then some more Photoshop work with a shot took with my little Canon SX60 of some water droplets from the tap! Lots of editing, texturing and colouring to age the scene and bullet hole added to look like it's viewed through glass using an Adobe CC Stock Art image for the bullet hole. The title of the image is called "Blood Bath" and if some Hollywood thriller, horror film producer wants to use this for a film and make me a very rich man then please don't hesitate I'll send my bank details! ;)
