    Why not? I’ve done similar things with fake HDR in the past. Or am I missing something?

    /obligatory ‘buy a Canon’ post.

    Personally, I’m hoping my camera lasts long enough to be able to get a full-frame sensor, but…WAY out of my price range right now =

    Im not sure if Im happy you reminded me with this that I had another picture I may use for tonight that I forgot about or mad that I now have another picture I have cut down from to get down to 3.

    LOL. Well, unless I get some sudden inspiration tonight, I’ll have two, but I think they’re pretty decent (particularly since I’ve got at least three hours into each one). And, ironically, I’ve taken both shots within the last week.

    I’m actually heading out the door for dinner and a meeting, but wrapping/warping your own image into a shape should be fine. I guess what I’m getting at is using someone else’s picture elements to create textures/brushes that you then use on top of your own image. If it’s just something like adding a “grunge” texture that’s canned from PS, I’m not as concerned about that. But specifying parts of someone else’s picture to use to enhance your own is beyond that, to my way of thinking.

    Okay, I can totally buy into that. My paranoid brain was just telling me that one of my shots was no good, so I thought I’d ask 😛

    Okay, now it’s my turn for silly questions. Elsinore you mentioned that canned textures are probably over the line, but by that, you’re referring to using an image or a shape to ‘wrap’ the picture around – like if you were to mold a picture onto a sphere, or someone’s face, for example – and not brush-type filters. Am I correct in this?

    I can link one of the shots I’m planning on using if I’m not being clear.

    Good point. You’d have to be the sort of person that would take a picture of a fish head in tomato soup, or something.

    I’m presuming the idea is the same region. For (my) example, “things to see and do around Sacramento”.

    So my pictures would then be different things, but all things in the area. Say, within 20 minutes drive from someone’s hotel. *drive time is arbitrary, it’s just what I’m doing, approximately

    Low threshold, I suspect, considering he’s one of gorgor’s friends…

    Okay, cool. I was trying to find that line between ‘stacking pictures’ and ‘adding/removing items’ was. =P

    I just want to be sure – stacking the same scene, such as what Pope_Larry linked is okay, no?

    The one thing I noticed is that the grills are different. Not sure why they would go to the trouble to fix that but not remove any other details that could be used to identify the original if they did copy it.

    They did a pretty crappy job of photoshopping out the badges. I bet they couldn’t figure out how to remove the reflections of the power lines.
