Hi,
this one is from a holiday in Ireland.
The small photo on the right is of the froth on a pint of Guinness with a Shamrock worked into it.

Hi Kev,
I've been to Ireland once....briefly.....and it rained the whole week. But I'd love to go back.....fascinating country. I love all the coloured houses, whereabouts was that taken Kev? Nice montage too!

Kay,
glad you like it.
I took the background layer, the guinness and the houses.
By the way the background was made into a painting effect and the cross was painted back in using a layers mask.

Hi,
thank you all for the kind comments.
I think that the houses were in Donnegal but I never kept the name of the town.
Raffy,
sorry but no, none of the images were in the north.
I will look through my files and see if I have any but at the time I was there the North was not the place to go on holiday.

Kev- Thanks for the info! The background shot is perfect for this collage, and you've certainly got the blending/masking down.

Kay,
thanks.
Blending is just a matter of practice, patience and luck.
If I can do it, I'm certain that anyone can.

really pleased that you like it.
With a name like Colleen, sure and all, wouldn't it be right to want to go to the Emerald Isle.
