I woke up this morning feeling the need for sunshine so I created a sunny look using the window image that I created at Hopewell Furnace last year and the very top sunflower field image that I created at my Sunflower Farm Workshop last summer . My original posting (shown below) of the window had a wintry feel to it. I decided to do a 2 image composite and add some sloppy brushstrokes in Photoshop, I wanted a whimsical look. Next I applied a round of Fractalius, using a layer mask I revealed bits and pieces at a reduced opacity. I finished off the look with a few texture overlays. I also brought in an image of a terracotta (reduced its size) pot to help add to the 3D look I was going for.
This is the window that I originally posted. I added a slight snow effect and desaturated it to create a gloomy look.

Creative, imaginative and much, much nicer to look at than the snow in my back yard! I am there in my mind.
Hi John, Thank you. It was a lot of fun to create! I have a tiny bit of snow covering my yard today too.
What a beautiful picture – a real work of art. You have to have a fantastic imagination to come up with a picture like that. I almost certainly would never think of anything like that if I had the original picture.
Congratulations and thank you very much for sharing.
Pete
You have such a talent! So much creativity….needed the spring feel as I look at snow and cold today…Thanks!
Absolutely wonderful, Denise! It’s so much fun to see through your eyes to these visions.
The cleverest part of this clever photo is how the flower come in through the window! Excellent!
Ha! Too much fun! I agree, those sunflowers flowing through the window panes are amazing. I love it!
Oh, Denise, I love it. You make the sunshine light up all of us.
