Well, I got bored and decided to play with layers and blending in PS -- and came up with a supercell pushing just north of Detroit -- or about just over my house :lol:

You heard it here first, SDS is in full effect for all of us unfortunate enough to be in Michigan ;).

[David Draun]

This storm is very powerful. It is very isolated, and there is room to grow. Just look at the clear air around it. :shock:

I think you'd have a decent shot at getting on with TRADD.

And I thought I was the only one who had to much time on my hands, an spent 5 hours on PHotoshop a day since 1999, it's good to see there are others spending time on there too...but I've been doing it for too long I think.

Actually, it didn't even take me that long... To blend all those pics together, and to make the entire page probably only took me an hour. Yes, winter has indeed set in (a few more monthes, and we'll be back to normal) :lol:

Nope, I have seen >30 real tornadoes :wink:

Is this really a Weather Lab-type post?

Is this really a Weather Lab-type post?

Well, how does this sound... This thread is a lot better then the zillion recent topics of snow, fog and all the related. I'd rather have something related to severe thunderstorms on this board for once in this season...

[Robert Dewey]

Hey hey Nick... I'm not picking on your threads, don't pick on mine! :twisted:

I don't mind Nick's picks (lol), if you don't like to look at them then don't. I would say the same to Nick about my winter storm threads :x:

Anyway, it's winter time... So get over it - there will be snow.

I don't see a problem with the post... actually this is a good idea... let's have a contest! See:

How do you blend 2 pictures in Photoshop like that? I really haven't worked with Photoshop much...

[Andrew Khan]

Lasso Tools, Extraction Tools, Clone Tools, Cut Tool, Layers and Brushing....that's what I do...you can also use the brushing from scratch method....
