I figured I ought to tell the story of my blog background (which gets into the story of my blog) and give credit as best I can for the picture I used to make it. Also I should probably warn you here and now that I tend to ramble.ย
So, first off, I have to admit that I canโt give exact credit for the original picture I used; I got it from Google Earth a long time ago, and now that theyโve changed the photos layer, I canโt find the original anymore. Iโve tried a reverse google image search, but it doesnโt come up. All I can tell you is that it came from Narrows, Virginia, or the surrounding area, and itโs of the New River. So, if youโre the photographer who took this picture, let me know how youโd like to be credited (or if I need to find a new background image).ย
I love this picture, though, with the tranquil water reflecting the mountains and that lone tree jutting up on the left. It has a nice balance, or perhaps a good visual flow, and it reminds me of home. (Iโm originally from Blacksburg, Va, and Narrows is a little over half an hour west and a smidge north of home.)
Anyways, Iโm also posting the various stages of my photoshopping (well, actually, I just used the โmarkup toolbarโ in Preview on my Mac to edit the color of the image, but that doesnโt work as a verb as well as photoshop does).ย
Aside from my general love of all things purple, I also wanted to tint the picture purple so that it would be a picture ofย โthe Lande of Violet Mistsโ. The Lande (with anย โeโ for artistic flair) of Violet Mists is a fantasy land and somewhat of an in-joke going back to the blogspot blog I made Sophomore year of high school. It has a vague mythos on said blog--in bits and pieces, such as the one I have in my blog description here--but itโs mostly more of an aesthetic theme than a properly developed literary location, though I have written bits and pieces set there. Remind me to dig some of those back up and see if any are worth sharing here, actually.ย
At first made this edit for aforementioned high school blogspot, and I did try to set it as my background there, but I couldnโt get the formatting to work. When I started this tumblr, though, I was happy I had it in reserve.ย
So, basically I tinted the picture pink and turned the temperature towards cool (aka blue) to make it purple. I think I also decreased the sharpness to give it that atmospheric haze and boosted the saturation some to intensify it. I decided the first one wasnโt purple enough, so I made the second one, but that one just looked too unnatural (and a bit too pink) so I went back to the first one (each time I started a new edit, I made a copy of the original so that I could have each step as a separate image) and made it just a little more purple. I liked that one, and I just inserted a translucent square to have that more opaque region in the middle where posts go. That wasnโt wide enough, though, so I actually took a screenshot so that Iโd have an image in proportion with my computer screen and copy-pasted the image onto that and stretched it wider, and thatโs how I got the final image. I suppose this isnโt necessarily specific enough to be helpful as a tutorial, but hopefully it gives the gist of how I edited my background picture. When in doubt, add purple :)
