I way reading about negative space in a graphic design book and found this song stuck in my head.

HOWTO: Hyperreal Suburbia

No camera can take this picture. This is a merger of a single photo that was shifted across the spectrum to emphasize the contrasts that we normally do not see in the upper and lower ranges of light.



Enjoy!


Final Product



Steps to recreate...


(1) Original
(2) Use the Levels tool to focus on the lower end of the spectrum at the cost of washing out the sky.
(3) Use the Levels tool to focus on the higher end of the spectrum such that the normal visible range is quite dark.
(4) A gradual transparent erasure of the sky region from the over-exposed ground picture. Layer that on top of the understated sky picture for the final result.
