I used a Wacom Pen & Touch, a lot of masking, had some fun with the colors. It took me about ~30 minutes of straight PS work.

I’m only just learning how to use the Wacom Tablet =)

Going Crazy With Photoshop

You can do some really strange things with images in Photoshop. On this image, I duplicated the background layer 2 times and changed the layer blending mode. Then I zoomed in each layer by a certain amount and also rotated each by a few degrees to the left from a center nodal point that I selected. Then I masked out all the changes to the center rear portion of the image so that it looks as it did originally. The result sort of makes it look as though the building is collapsing, but it is confusing to look at because the back portion in the distance is unaffected. It’s like a double exposure on all but the distant archway.

These types of manipulations can really do some interesting and strange things with certain images.

If you’re interested in knowing the exact details of how this was done, just email me.
