Cool

So nice. Great colors. What an interesting effect. I'll have to get the book.

Theory. . .

Richard, I enjoy this, and the other montage--composite images. Its refreshing, exceptionally invigorating to see "theory put to practice."

This is more like it

Ah, very nice use of the method you described in your previous montage..the softness of texture but wide range of colors certainly makes this very pretty. I would be interested to see how an image like this would come out with a film other than Velvia...RVP really provides the intense colors, but it also produces very intense, inky shadows. Since you're already getting strong saturation and contrast with this digital method, a different film may produce a more gradual transition between light and dark...seems very strong in this image going from the left of the frame toward the lower right. Perhaps Provia or Kodachrome...but this is certainly nice.
