Something for the Weekend - Part 239 - Misty Mountains.

Community Expert ,
Apr 25, 2025 Apr 25, 2025

Hi,

Thanks to everyone who took part in our last 'Blast Off' challenge. 

 

This weekend, we leave industry behind and move to open spaces. 'These mist covered mountains...', sang Mark Knopfler in Brothers in Arms. Well we have our own mist covered mountains here which, I hope, are more peaceful than those in the song. Of course that choice is yours, what will you make with this scene?

 

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

Well it has certainly brightened it up. With everyone wearing masks I wonder what the mist is made of! 🙂

Here ya go!

 

Love your image, sorry for the quick work, I took my lunch hour to enhance my sense of diet by getting distracted on something I love and ignore the absence of taste in my almost looking like a lunch.

 

Hope you all enjoy my take!

That's a cool user name, Hello it's Ana!

 

One minute you're  the scariest dude on the block, and the next you're reduced to being a toaster.

Welcome to SFTW Ana. Of course, the dragon could really be friendly and just bringing a bit of warmth in those pre-central heating days!  🙂

Henrik, you are now responsible for a new earworm which I'll be listening to, in my mind, all day - Talking Heads - 'Road to Nowhere'

Yes.  This SFTW is getting more action than the current one.  Mainly because it keeps getting bumped methinks.

Misty Mountain T-RexMisty Mountain T-Rex
Brothers in Arms is a good tune! However, when I saw the image, I was thinking more Primordial Earth/Jurassic Park and  'Misty Mountain Hop' by Led Zeppelin. Overall, the lyrics of the song don't really fit the image but this verse might:

If you go down in the streets today, baby, you better
You better open your eyes, woah-woah-yeah

And keep your eyes open because a T-Rex might be lurking nearby. 😄

Another earworm to carry through the day! I see you have reduced the depth of field in the image to bring focus to the dinosaur. I wouldn't mess with him! 🙂
