Photo Manipulations!!!

Filed under: Graphics — Clayton @ 11:49 pm

Tonight I was suppose to go out, I barely go out :roll: , but because of the lack of transportation I’m forced to stay home :-( . So in my disappointment and total boredom I decided to try out something new.

Photo Manipulations!!!

I was inspired when browsing through the gallery at Deviantart of a friend of mine. So since I have nothing better to do anyways I decided to try it out myself.
This is my first try, so any tips, points and critisism is welcome. Good and bad.
I’ve saved the .psd file so I can still edit anything that is wrong with it.
I’m looking at my clock now and see that I’ve been working more than 2.30hour on it (:o)

So please tell me what you think.
Also about the name, because I’m not sure what I think about it. I just picked it, because most of the colors are golden/yellow.

I followed this tutorial here to create this. But added my own things to it, because as you will notice it’s not exactly the same. Just the idea.

The original photo I found at deviantart.

The reason why you don’t her see right hand, is because in the original photo it was behind a tree. I tried to “create” one for her, but it didn’t fit. So I added a sparkle to make it look like a bright light of magic is shooting from her hand.

A laugh and a tear for MJ – RIP Michael Jackson

Filed under: Clay's personal, Music, My thoughts on... — Tags: , , , — Clayton @ 11:57 pm


 
Today I watched Michael Jackson’s memorial show on TV like millions of you out there. And I must say that it has been a very touching I’m sure you will agree.

The show affected me waaay more than I ever expected it to be. I was all emotional and had shaky eyes. And when MJ’s daughter said her farewell and broke into tears so did…. Yes, tears actually rolled from my face. That is a very heartbreaking moment. Even now when thinking about it I can feel my eyes itching again.

See, everyone saw Michael as an entertainer, a musician, an icon, sometimes even “wacko jacko”, but for the first time we saw him as a father…. And that’s something we never knew. And it reminds us that he was a very loving person.

The man lived an interesting life and though it was short I’m sure he lived more then any of us ever will!

That is another reason why I was so emotional.
you see most of the time I’m kinda cold and emotionless. I’ve “toughen” myself over the years, but seeing all this made me realize that life is short and also to never ever give up on your dreams. MJ hadn’t and he has achieved so much.

I myself have big dreams and sometimes wonder if they aren’t a bit “too big” for me to achieve, but watching the life of MJ I now realize that I shouldn’t give up. I need to keep on fighting and believing in myself. Believing that I can achieve all I want.

I’ve never really considered myself a fan of Michael Jackson, but since his dead his music his been all over the radio and the TV and I realize just exactly how many songs of him I knew and how many I loved. And also the very positive message they contain.

Who can forget The Earth Song? One of my most favorite songs ever. So epic and so touching.

Let’s open out hearts and love each other; keep on dreaming and believing and your dreams will come true.

Rest in peace Michael Jackson, you will never be forgotten and live on in the hearts of us all!!!
