Something for the Weekend - Part 251 - Lemons and Limes!

Hi,
Thanks to all who submitted images in our previous album cover challenge. There were some great ideas and great covers.

This week we start with 4 simple fruit. You can use one or all of them in creating a new image. The only limit is your imagination, how far can you take it?

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • The challenge is not limited to Photoshop. Any Adobe software can be used. 
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the starter image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

 

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

If you didn't know this was going to happen, then you don't know me, and you're as slow as a turtle.

Hasn't worked on me Dave.

Being serious for a moment, this Ai malarkey is getting clever.  It extended my Firefly avatar image, and did the above when told to 'Make the person holding the dog very overweight'.  I thought it might throw up an error because the term 'overweight' contravened its nanny filter, but it seems that fat tummies are not as unacceptable as too much skin.  (Nano Banana with Select All)

I recognise those wheels and tyres, Bob. A great idea to use the lemons as centres, you might have started a whole new trend 🙂

Welcome to SFTW, Dan. I like the pop-art poster feel to this. 🙂
