Something for the Weekend - Part 232 - Through the Mill!

Hi,
We had some great entries to our last, 'Cutting Edge' challenge. Thanks to all who took the time to create those images.

 

This week we are off to the River Wear at Durham, where we find this old fulling mill. Fulling is a step in the process of making woollen cloth. The building dates back to the 17th century although there are records of a watermill at the location even before that. In 1833 it became a museum and part of the university of Durham. It is a timeless and tranquil scene. What can you do to liven it up?

 

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”.
  • 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!

 

Dave

That must be the Lambton Worm. A famous myth said to be not far from this location.

Every day is new day to learn something. So I went to read up some more on the Lambton Worm @davescm and found this amazing illustration.

A combination of the generative fill in the top photo and the remove tool in the bottom image.

I think I prefer the top version where the river bank is re-inforced, rather than the bottom where the mill was demolished! 🙂

I'm always impressed how the generative fill gets the reflections in water pretty spot on.. not really difficult to to do manually- but to get er done with  a couple of mouse clicks is pretty cool.

A tranquil scene indeed, as we are joined by Bambi. In the summer I was staying in a house on the banks of the river Ness. Walking back to the house one evening, I saw two deer in the garden. Unfortunately, they saw me and took off before I could grab a photo.

Admittedly I hadn't, even with such big changes. It seems you have been doing a spot of river-scaping 🙂
