Seattle, WAby ~skizatch

Customization / Wallpaper / HDTV & Widescreen

This is based on a picture that my friend Marie took while she was visiting Seattle over Christmas break. The biggest problem with the picture was that there were powerlines crossing in front of the Space Needle! So using the power of Paint.NET and its Clone Stamp tool, I removed the two that were the worst offenders. Then I added some glow with a 2nd layer using Gaussian Blur and the Overlay blend mode. Cropped it, resized it, and now it's a high-res widescreen wallpaper.

Yeah, without all of those powerline, this would have been freaking SUPER! it still ooks really good though. Isn't this fairly close to Bill Gates' mansion?

I believe he lives in Medina, on the other side of the lake, not in Seattle.

Very nice shot. Saw this on the Paint.net and followed it here.

~coordination Apr 4, 2006

wow! cool! I use paint.NET, and i'm wondering how you removed the lines without leaving traces behind.

Great pic!

very carefully, and very slowly with the clone stamp mostly. some use of the color picker and pencil tools to per-pixel fixups. it also helps to start with an image at a higher resolution than you plan to publish at -- in this case, the original is 2560x, and then resized down to 1920x for publication
