Fantasy Portrait Example 2

This is me again! Some people are embarrassed by their baby pictures, but I’m not. I was adorable and I know it! =)

In this case, I used my own face and put it on a picture of a daisy that I had taken earlier. It is quite an involved process, and I don’t want to reveal all my secrets, especially since I don’t know of anyone else who does portraits like these, so I won’t be explaining this one in detail. Sorry.

After adding my face to the flower, I changed the hue of the “Face” layer to more of a yellow/orange color in order to help it blend into the flower. Then I used one of my Special Effects to make it appear as if the facial features were actually coming out of the flower itself. This one was done partially in Microsoft Digital Image Pro and partially in Adobe Photoshop Elements Adobe Photoshop Elements.
