Digital Artwork

This gallery is dedicated to showing what is achievable with photo editing software such as Photoshop. The only slight drawback is most of my photos have taken many many hours to complete but i think it is well worth the effort.

Spotted this little beauty at McArthur Glen retail park, York. If you look closely most reflections removed and paintwork blended. Made for a great photo on the TT Owners Club website. A simple sky added and the road in front of my house to create a colourful image. Text and speed blur added for extra effect.

Chirk Viaduct, Wales, & Isle of Rhum, Scotland, carefully blended to create one image.

A gorgeous Bentley Mulsanne taken at the Metro Centre car park - on my mobile phone. I like the blue version.

Photo's taken at the Sage, Newcastle and Redcar Stray. The Sage (Glasshouse) was taken left and right sides; then mirrored to achieve the symmetrical roof effect opposite left. Buttresses were hand painted and added to look like supports for the roof structure rather than having it floating above the Audi TT. The tarmac road surface was taken outside our house. The moon; I take lots of these when the lighting is favourable.

A Simple image for what should have been my parents 70th Wedding Anniversary. Sadly dad passed away 2 yrs sooner. Mounted onto 6mm adhesive foamboard with a working clock mechanism and she loved it all the same.

An easy one, taken in my garage; no special lighting other than overhead flouro's

Todies in my garden.

The Ferrari was photographed at along the high street in Bakewell, Derbyshire on my mobile phone. Lucky for me it did not have a front number plate. Many hours work painting the backdrop though the mountains are from Austria. Tarmac road from outside my house. Grass; from some random location. The sky is one of my library shots. A beautiful car. Again, much work to remove random reflections from the car.

The owner preferred the middle sepia version.

Our Harley - Photographed along Redcar Stray, late summer 2024.

The Gate to Lucerne, Switzerland. Some slight perspective adjustment, removal of lots of people, and a little deliberate blur to a few stragglers left over to show some movement. Oh, and a new sky added from my collection. White van man removed too.

The Wedding, but wedding couple thought there were just too many random visitors so many removed. A few left for the musicians to lay to.

Harley-Davidson Fat Boy. This was a courtesy bike on loan from Harley. Photographed on my driveway at home with a lovely sunset added.

I used to be an Emergency Bloodrun Motorcyclist and driver. BP were sometimes kind enough to give us free fuel. In return they liked photos of the charity filling up the vehicles at their stations. So this was enhanced to include more than the one original vehicle. I think they liked it.

The original Harley Street Glide on the left was photographed at the summit of Silvretta mountain in Austria. Firstly the coat on the seat was removed, then the many bug splats all over the screen and fairing, then the blades of grass removed. Then the Harley was juxtaposed onto Saltburn pier. This photo won the Harley-Davidson annual HOG members award and was given a centre page spread in their magazine.

The decrepit building was photographed in Poreč, Croatia. The Harley was photographed in Switzerland. Look closely and you will see my hand sketched cobweb, and Welcome Cafe sign above. I think it looks great with the background in Black & White.

Maroon Bells Colorado. A friend asked if I could improve his fabulous photo. Over to you to decide if this an improvement.

How to bring a dull image to life - Lake Bled in Slovenia. The day I took this photo it was very overcast. Many hours of work have brought it back to life.

Our BMW Grand America 1600cc. The original image left was photographed at Roy Point, Scotland. The finished image right was a background of the summit of Sass Pordoi, Italy, and a bike book from my bookcase.

Another photo for a friend. The original looked a little dull for such a grand old steam train.

A neighbours McLaren and again, many hours of editing time I think has produced a great photo of his car. Lots of reflections removed and paintwork blended for a nice finish to the bThe doors were hand painted as were the door shadows too.

McLaren Artura - Photographed at Teesside Retail centre car park. Lucky for me the owner was by his car and kindly opened the doors for me. A little simple artwork to create the backdrop makes for a great photo.

McLaren Artura - Photographed at Teesside Retail centre car park. Some work to do to erase all the extraneous reflections and smooth the paintwork. Also correct centralisation of the wheels and tyres too. A little simple artwork to create the backdrop makes for a great photo.

The original photo was taken at the Diner up the A19. The edited photo was created using the Redcar Wind Farm, Redcar beach, our lawn, and mountains I painted using clouds. The moon from my library of moons.

My first digital painting. All hand painted within Photoshop, even the water droplets.
