The apple off my eye

I had a picture off my daughters eye,it was very sharp and wanted to post it but then i saw there were already so many eye pictures. So I tried to do something creative..my eyeapple !!

about the pic.

one shot Golden delicous ( apple )
one shot air background
one shot my daughters eye

and lots off work in ps7.
worked in 3 layers.
A lot of work was done on the eye,to get the eye realy "IN" the apple.
-1-cropped the eye with feather 25 pxls
-2-pasted into a new layer on the apple
-3-select by color range skin color.
-4-applyd selective color under " tab image, adjustment" -red: -mag,+cyaan ,+yellow until the skin color was the same as the apple.
-5- used the clone tool to perfect this
-6- sharpended (darken) the eye lashes.
-7- more contrast and saturation on the pupil.
-8- applyd USM
-9- added clouds with feather 25 and frame.

Enjoy !!

Tres beau....une composition digne de plusieurs regards....
La pomme tranche merveilleusement bien avec le fond. Un travail remarquablement bien réussi.
Envoyez-nous en d' autres comme celle-la....
J'y jeterai surement ''un coup d' oeil''!!!

Hello Leon, this image is exquisite and delightfully original, a work very well processed with a lot of life and energy, a sweet, natural touch and sophisticated at the same time, the clarity super, me alone I can say: wow, brilliant, excellent. I like a lot the work that you made in this image, your daughter's eye it is beautiful. The detail of the bee is the surprise for my in this picture. Congratulations, I will add it to my favorite ones. Cordial greetings. *Ninfa Urania*

Great work with Ps. Very imaginative. Green apple, yellow wasp and blue sky and eye. Your daughter has great eyes (well at least one great eye).
Good job.

I wished there were more points to be given than 2... You should print this in a large format, have it framed, and put in on the wall. One of my favourite pics! Well done, TFS.

Yeah, I can imagine, how you get this eye in the apple, but it is realy like In it, and I do not know, how you did that !
It is wonderful,very creative, Leon !

Hi Leon , very nice job . It makes me remember Salvador Dali. Surrealism!!
The apple is the forbidden fruit and children eye´s is the future. Congratulations , Fernanda

Leon,

It's amazing. Very creative work. Nicely done. :-)

Tout simplement remarquable.
Félicitations.

You have made an excellent work! I like these type of photos, with fantasy and hunger! Great job! 2 points from me!

"L'oeil était dans la pomme est regardait Caïn"
Quite à faire une photo surréaliste autant faire le commentaire du meme tonneau :-))

magnifique composition de ta part et tres bonne imagination, j'adore....les couleurs sont bien rendues...tout est tres bons...bravo BI

Belle composition, c'est original et super bien réalisé !

Leon, this is extremely well conceived and executed. A piece of art. Great work, indeed.

Terrific! Great note of explanation, too.

Very creative, and good composition. I also like the colours, the "angry" sky with the shiny apple brings more drama to this fictive image.

Unbelievable! I love this one. So surreal.

While this isn't really something I go for, I can say that I admire the skills taken to produce this image and it is interesting for technical reasons. The way the eye blends with the apple is fantastic. The edge of the apple with the sky is something that could use a little darkening or blur I think

Quelle superbe composition et montage.
L'oeil est très bien incrusté. Je reviendrai pour étudier l'opération en PP.
Merci du partage.

and I wanted to post a photo of an eye there... will think twice before doing that as I'm afraid my eye can't compete with this one. :)

the idea is just wonderful - you are playing with words (an apple of an eye) using images - great!

C'est un travail magnifique, quelle patience et surtout quelle idée du résultat que vous vouliez avoir! C'est incroyable de réalité , de vie et de présence, magique! Bravo. Claude

Hi Leon

Cool! This is very creative, & goes straight to my favourites. I like the titles play on words. An excellent composite montage with great color, lighting, & sharpness. Well done!

No words to express my admiration for the
original idea,
the colors
the frame
and the composition in a hole.
Fabulous!!!

I can't believe that I haven't put any critique with this picture yet... I love it, I really love it, I guess everything is said by the others above. You really deserve these > 100 points.

I only saw this because i was reading the critique fro anneliejse. It's a lesson to new members that they should take a look at some of the older postings. I think just about every thing has been said about the picture. Great work

Ilove the fact that your photograph exemplifies what I mean by creativity, and, you have a very fertile imagination -which would all be meaningless if you did not also possess the ability to carry it out. This is excellent. I love the idea, the composition and the detail. Thanks for sharing.

bonjour leon
excellent travail et un tres bon resultat.il y a souvent des vers dans les pommes mais des yeux!!!
laurent

Leon,
You seem to have Photoshop down to a science.
I am taking Photoshop classes at the local college and this seems to be as good, if not better, than anything I've ran across. I like the creativity here. I'm sure it took some time. I apreciate a good photoshop designer.
I am not much for borders (the thing people call frames..pffft.)
Anyway, You used the layers well and blended the eye on the apple good. Good notes, worth every point this has earned.
Scott
