I haven't posted... 4 Square Collage...

[Kristy]

I took a few snapshots of this little one while she was playing on a blanket today... I love the phase of when a baby grabs her toes.... too cute. :)

Thought I'd toss them into a little 4 square layout... Does it work, or not..?


Feel welcome to CC, and thanks for peeking. :)

Looks great! Love the toes pic.

How do you do this anyway? Is it done in photoshop?

[Blossom101]

Totally works. Love the pics!

[Kristy]

Thanks for the kind words... :) Yes Helene, it's in photoshop. Usually when I do a collage, I just draw out guide lines and work from there.... This one was made into an action by my shooting partner.. So it saved a few steps. :)

She really is such a cute baby and always playing with her toes.

Thanks, I'm going to have to figure out how to do this in Gimp. I have some pics I took of my niece that I want to collage

I'll check that out. I found a tutorial on youtube for gimp collage. It's for windows and I have a mac so I'm not quite getting it yet.

AWWWWWKKKKK! Those corn niblet toes! What a great series. Also love the unusual angle of the lower right photo. it totally works. not so sure about the binky shot, but i'm sure that is something the parents see her playing with all the time, and it shows her chubby little hands and arms. You da man.

Thank you.. I don't know anything about gimp. but it sounds like you can create layouts in it... :) Hope to see what you end up with. :)

THanks Sue.. actually, it's not a binky in that hand shot.. she's playing with little toy keys.. I wanted to journal her chubby baby hands.. ;)

i love doing montages!....it tells a story, i love these...lol
Appreciate the kind words... I was just playing around while babysitting her the other day. :)

Somehow I missed this.....love the little bits and pieces of her that you honed in on. I have done that for scrapbooking before and it is always fun to look at.

Thanks Maureen.. I love the little bitty hands and feet... So I had fun messing around with this. :)

Kristy, your lighting and black and white conversions are always dead on. Honestly, I am very jealous.
Thanks for sharing.

[Crissy7682]

I love it, and the toe grabbing phase is priceless :)

Oh Kevin.. you are too kind... :) THanks for the nice words...

The lighting is just from a couple of windows in the toy room.. and the conversion is a custom thing I saved in Silver EFX program. I like it cause it's kind of a "vanilla" tone with the darker mocha undertones in the shadow areas. :)

Thanks Crissy! :) I do love the toe grabbing phase also. I was hoping to put her on white seamless and do a little nude baby shot of her playing with her toes... but.. I just haven't had time to do it. :(
