Underwater Chilling


My  concept  is  being  in  an  unnatural  location/  habitat.  I'm  standing  normally  as  I  would  on  land,  however  being  underwater  counters  the  norm  and  the  expected.  It  delivers  a  message  of  being  at  piece  with  the  out  of  place  and  unity  of  two  foreign  or  opposite  parts  of  the  planet.  As  I  am  standing  with  a  relaxed  posture,  in  no  tense  position,  as  one  would  expect  when  being  underwater,  a  sense  of  unity  is  introduced  throughout.
Although  I  lost  part  of  my  work  as  the  computer  was  restarted,  i  am  generally  happy  with  the  results.







I  added  layer  masks  in  order  to  hide  pixels  on  the  previous  layer.  First  I  selected  "add  layer  mask"  Then  I  hit  control  click and  selected  large  thumbnails.  White  reveals  while  black  hides.  I  used  black  in  order  to  hide  the  previous  layer  and  show the  water.
