Glass Menagerie II by Kraellin

Kraellin, I checked this one out.....and I like many of the presets. There is one preset in particular that I'm absolutely in love with.....

Yeah, I've been playing with the adjustments on that preset with different images.....and experimenting with using it in combination with other effects. I have to fly right now, but I'll post some of the tests later.....

Hope you had a great weekend!!!

Me too.....I've been totally swamped with work.....which is why I haven't been here on the forums lately....

Oh, almost forgot, I have some neat test pics that I made with this filter. I still want to work on them a little more, but I will definitely post some of them here.....

Again, I'm totally anamoured with this preset and variations of it.....really gives that subtle refraction like you are behind real glass.....

What other little gems have you been hiding from me??? LOL....

Gimmie!!! LOL.... Okay, I'll just have too hack my way into your computer to get them LOL.... just kidding This was a nice little discovery for me.....

Carl was looking for glass, so I sent him here..... HEY CARL, THIS IS THE ONE!!!

lol. 'stealing' free filters... now that's a first

Hi Kreallin~

I was playing with your filter~

Eye Candy and a dash of Revelations plastic (can barely see it... edges)... both of these filters are on the edging only.

Had to give it a go too after seeing the first one yesterday.
When momma says 'Stay Away' she means STAY AWAY

This is going to be pretty handy... love all this 'glassy' glass stuff you guys are coming up with

I'm reading it
Is that the 1st one he made?

Oh Foxxee we must have posted at the same time (the last time I posted) becauase I didn't see the elephant image!

Amazing,, LOL,,, Luvs it! Was thinking this filter would be nice for the glass on a framed photo. I'm going to have to make one and send to Mom... she's mad at my husband right now so any photos I send to her of him have to be altered for humor... LOL.

I sent her one today of Revelation with the shark tank filter on it... she loves it!!! ((She's not speaking to him right now)).

Yep,,, his first filter... put a layer of blank canvas around your image... the size you want your matte... select that layer/area then apply the plastic.

So am I understanding this right... I want to use the Plasic filter over the frame or matt of the picture, not the picture itself? And how does it make a shadow then, what sort of shadow effect?

Sorry ... was playing with the plastic filter... Well no not on the image. And anything you have around the image will effect the shadow.

I made a simple and basic one to show ...

click to view larger image... you'll see the selection lines...

Didn't think of that, didn't think of a camera lense either, I was thinking more on the line of a Jeep or Hummer's window as you caravan along the tourist trails

Ahh, I understand now. Yep, looks like something I'd try myself. Thanks for the demo, Persido

Oh I forgot what comment thread I was in and realized that this filter was not in the image... so....

Here is the same image as above... the area around the wavy image is one application of Glass Menagerie II... then the matte also has an application from a different preset~
