Rust Buckets Dec 1, 2004

The post-processing of these scrap bins made this image one of my favourites. The texture has been increased significantly through some channel work in Photoshop. The original image didn't have nearly the same impact.

Details for you Photoshop types... The red channel was duplicated and pasted as a new layer over the rest of the image, and then that was duplicated (so you have two layers which are copies of the red channel above all other layers). The top layer was set to 'multiply' mode, and the bottom one set to 'luminosity'. Then, I used the 'poster edges' filter (with various settings) on the bottom one.

Remember: Experiment... play... enjoy Photoshop. :)
