Deep Sea Fishing 

4/24/22

    This composite image shows the difference one might find between the deep ocean and the surface. We see a small fishing trawler fighting the waves on the surface, temporarily unable to fish. Underneath, and make that way underneath in your imagination, the deep ocean angler fish has his fishing lure lit up, just waiting for his prey to take the bait. 

    The PFCC starter image was the Pixabay bubbles you see below the surface; the rolling waves are also from Pixabay. The angler fish was from AdobeStock, and I have used Photoshop’s sky replacement to get the brooding sky. The trawler is from PixelSquid. Of course, I've used lots of color layers and adjustment layers to get the exact look that I wanted. That's the part that makes my work unique, even though I am using stock images. It's my magic. :-) 

    If you've never used PixelSquid, you should really try it out. They have a free plug-in that lets you search for and place, in a 3-D space, spinable images from their collection. Some of their images are free, so you can play at no charge, but to get access to their full library there is a subscription fee. I think what I pay is very reasonable, especially for as often as I use it, but, I may be grand-mothered in because I have used it for such a long time. 

    Take care and stay well.
