Project 7 - Surrealism and Photo Montage







In this photo I am windsurfing on clouds.  The other objects are completely out of scale which also 
makes this surrealistic and interesting.


This is a more intense edit.  To make it, I put into HDR Pro in Photoshop and put a surrealistic filter on it.

Cyanotypeis a photographic printing process that produces a cyan-blue print. Engineers used the process well into the 20th century as a simple and low-cost process to produce copies of drawings, referred to as blueprints. The process uses two chemicals: ammonium iron(III) citrate and potassium ferricyanide.
