After last week's 'Walk on' challenge in Yorkshire, I thought we should continue our outdoor adventures. Everyone loves a rock pool, so we start this week with some coastal rocks on the Northumberland coast. What can you make with this? Will it be something that comes out of the sea, or something living in a pool?

No AI used for this composite.
Just noticed that I love this color palette. 😊

Wow this is amazing! How did you create these wavy lines, could you share your workflow, please? It turned out gorgeous

Yes it is really quite beautiful. You could do the sky with:
Select foreground, background colours and run a gradient down a layer.
Render fibers and rotate 90°.
Gausian blur 10 pixels. (Actually, I think I might have stepped back and deleted that step)
Distort > Wave with the settings below.
Free Transform to expand the result.
You could make it a Smart Object and Liquify to fine tune the waves.

Thanks a ton, @Trevor.Dennis! I really appreciate it! I was guessing motion blur, liquify and some masking but I was sure there would be a way better way of achieving the effect and there really was. Tks

Thanks a bunch, happy you like it!
These wayvy lines are my way of creating long exposure skies. I used the path blur.
Feel free to have a look at the file here and/or download it:

Note: I set the 2nd radial blur to Pin Light to get that slightly grainy effect.

Oh yes Kathrin. Path Blur is an outstanding tool, and one I had been ignoring till I saw this video from Jesus Rameriz. He always manages to take things up a level. Guys, it's 38 seconds, and if you are not already a regular user of Path Blur, you'll be glad you watched this.

Hi Dave,
Great idea to keep the outdoor adventures going! The Northumberland coast is a beautiful spot, and I’m excited to see what everyone comes up with. I love the idea of using the starter image to create something fun and creative. Whether it's a sea creature or something living in a rock pool, the possibilities are endless.
Looking forward to seeing everyone's entries and enjoying the creativity! Let's have fun and get inspired by the coastal rocks.
Best,
james

Time for a walk in the cold!

Hey, I've never seen a snow dog. Mind you, the last time it snowed where I live, was the last Ice Age.
Where did they get the twigs for the arms from? Everyone knows that trees don't grow north of Hadrian's Wall. The Sycamore Gap tree was the last tree before Scotland.
And some bugger has chopped that down now.
The 'Perps' appear before the Crown Court in Newcastle (near where Dave lives) tomorrow (12th June 2024). Why would a person do something like that?
