I have always had this idea that I was a bird in a previous life.
So here is my bird life story.
It is made from three original photographs taken in Alaska in 2009. Some of
them were manipulated/created before becoming part of this montage.
Layers are as follows:
Background of paper (normal, 100%)
Ghostbirds (hardlight, 69%)
Sandpipers (softlight, 100%)
Kittiwake collage of images (dissolve, 90% with a mask to paint out some areas for blending)
Text with inner shadow
