New Zealand and the magic of Photoshop CS5



These are two pictures I "took" in New Zealand. The lower one is a composite of some 30 or so pictures that I took from atop a mountain in Queenstown. The upper one is a filled-in version that I made using the new version of photoshop. Anything that doesn't appear in the bottom was generated by a computer, working with a bit of help from me, in under 45 minutes. Notable pieces include nearly the entire bottom 15% of the photo and the top 5%. Its not perfect, and zooming in enough (on the super-high-resolution versions I have on my computer but can't publish due to their size) reveals repeating textures and some incongruous jumps between areas. I also modified the lighting and the hue just a tad.
