Too Nice To Rake/ Creative Exchange

 It's too nice outside to rake leaves

Two photos merged in Photoshop Elements.

 Layer 1

The first a colourful autumn scene.

Layer 2

The second is actually a summer photo I converted to black and white.

I am connecting to Creative Exchange HERE.

    Another really nice one! I have played with photos in along time other than to resize or crop for the blogs.

    Great effect. Choosing what to layer must be interesting, kind of like choosing what to paint.

    For me, there's always an excuse for not raking the leaves. :)

    All of these are fantastic, but I think the black and white is my favorite. Some really wonderful detail show up in that one.

    Thank you so much for sharing this today at The Creative Exchange.

    Have a wonderful evening!
