Nature Walk

Another attempt at selective pixel sorting, this time with more light and a colder colour temperature. I made the pixel sorted streaks longer this time, which gives a more pronounced contrast effect, though it does seem to create the effect of motion blur near the end of the path.

The original photo was taken with a Canon Powershot S5 IS, run through curves and levels adjustments. The image was then run through larixk.nl/experiments/sort/ for the pixel sorting. This sorted image was then overlaid onto the original, and the boardwalk was selected from the bottom layer (the original image), then erased from the top layer. All adjustments were done in Photoshop CS6.

Follow me for more of my photo experiments with breakdowns of the creation process.
