It's been said that Los Angeles is the most photographed city in the world.*
Here's one more.
(Well, with "embellishments" … ;o))
*taking into consideration all the movies made back in the early days of Hollywood

ReplyDeleteGreat image!!!
ReplyDeleteRobin Griggs Wood Beautiful! Two questions: How did you get the parachute chords to show up so well and how did you allow viewer to see the buildings in the background. I have assumed the parachutes were added to the image.
ReplyDeleteSecond, on the second level deck of the left middle building top, there appears to be some type of ramp that has handrails around it that goes right to the edge of the roof as if that is where a parachutist could jump off. What is that? Thanks! Great work as always!
Breathtaking image Robin Griggs Wood!!
ReplyDeleteArt through the Aperture Photography -- teehee ... yes, indeed ... :o). Thank you, dear!
ReplyDelete夏霖 -- thank you
Noble -- thank you
Alexander Bud -- thank you
Shelly Gunderson-- thank you, dear! Christer Westerlund -- thank you, my friend!! Carmen Mandich -- thank you, kindly!
ReplyDeletePaul Johnston -- thank you! Yes, it is a composite (the parachuters and the clouds were added). The cords were added by hand, using a super-tiny brush in Ps––click, hold down the Shift key and click again at the desired spot to draw a perfectly straight line (works only with Shape Dynamics turned off in the Brush palette). I'm not sure I understand your question "how did you allow viewer to see the buildings in the background" ... can you state that a different way? The platforms on the tops of the buildings are their helicopter landing/takeoff spots (it's downtown L.A.) ... and, yes, I suppose that would be a great place for a paraglider to jump from (... but you won't catch me doing that! ... ;oD)
Robin Griggs Wood Thanks you for all the information. I understand all you did. Since you drew the parachute chords in, naturally you would be able to see the building behind. I like those chords. I had wondered if the parachutes had some pre-existing background and how you were able to get rid of the background or blend such that the buildings became visible.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the time you gave to answer my question. Thank you!
Ah, I get it now, Paul Johnston ... thanks for explaining. Yes, those cords were just to tiny to pull a mask on ... :o7
