Often, something happens in life that gives us a different perspective; it might be something physical or spiritual, a lesson learnt, or a specific event. This design is dedicated to my mother, who recently had cataract surgery on one eye. She’s been short-sighted since she was a child, and back then it was frowned upon for someone to have poor eyesight; she never wore glasses, she just made do as best she could. It wasn’t until she was 32 that she got her first pair of glasses. I can’t imagine what it was like all that time, but she saw as best she could. It wasn’t severe short-sightedness, but she certainly didn’t see clearly.

Now, three days after her operation, she is happy; she can see with that eye like never before in her life, different shades of colour, sharp outlines. A new lease of life at 72, and that makes me very happy. Sight is one of the most precious of the senses, and symbolically, visión, a change in vision or perspective, often changes one’s life as well. I like to make that comparison. With the cataract, she could see less and less; she couldn’t even see my face, and now her life is completely different, much better. It’s worth it; no matter what age you are, the change for the better is always worth it, both physically and spiritually.

Muchas veces pasa algo en la vida que nos da una perspectiva diferente, puede ser algo físico como algo espiritual, un aprendizaje o un hecho puntual. Este diseño va dedicado a mi madre, que recientemente se ha operado de un ojo, de cataratas. Desde niña tiene miopía y en aquellos tiempos se veía mal que alguien viera menos, nunca usó gafas, veía como podía. Recién luego de los 32 años tuvo sus primeras gafas. No imagino como fue todo ese tiempo, pero ella veía como podía. No era extrema miopía, pero seguramente no veía nítido.

Ahora luego de tres días de ser operada está feliz, ve con ese ojo como nunca en su vida, distintas gamas de colores, contornos nítidos. Una nueva vida a sus 72 años y me alegra mucho eso. La vista es de los sentidos más valiosos y simbólicamente la visión, el cambio de visión, perspectiva muchas veces también cambia la vida. Me gusta hacer esa comparación. Con la catarata cada vez veía menos, ni si quiera mi rostro y ahora su vida es otra, mucho mejor. Vale la pena, no importa a que edad sea, siempre vale la pena el cambio a mejor tanto en el sentido físico como el espiritual.

Design process

The design was created entirely in Photoshop CS6 without the use of AI, using 11 royalty-free images distributed across 31 layers.

First, I created a grey layer onto which I placed the abstract image; I duplicated it and rotated it horizontally, creating a mirror image; I merged them and continued working with that merged image, from which I created several layers, using various blending modes such as luminosity, soft light and normal. I then selected several parts, those with relief, cut them out and pasted them, thus generating six more layers, and to these parts I added the drop shadow layer style to separate them from the overall image.

Beneath these layers containing the parts, I placed the textured image and used the soft light blending mode; I then added the silhouette and two of the flowers, the latter using the hard light blending mode, and in one corner I placed the image of the camera using the darker colour blending mode.

On top of the four circles in the abstract design I placed an eye, and on top of each eye a ring using the spot light blending mode. I worked on the image of the woman, after erasing the background, across four layers using Darker Colour, Spot Light, Normal, and Darker Colour again, placing this final layer on top of the entire design.

Finally, between the layers containing the individual parts, I placed the flower petals, and on top of all the design layers, the butterfly.

The animation is done completely in After Effects, working on the opacity of each layer and adding lights in the form of clouds for better contrast.

I send you all a big hello and see you next time.
Thanks for watching and reading this far.

Proceso del diseño

El diseño está realizado completamente en el programa Photoshop CS6 sin uso de IA con 11 imágenes sin derechos de autor distribuidas en 31 capas.

Primero cree una capa color gris sobre la que coloqué la imagen del abstracto, la duplique y giré horizontalmente, creando un espejo, las combiné y seguí trabajando con esa imagen combinada de la cual hice varias capas, con diversas fusiones como luminosidad, luz suave, normal y luego seleccioné varias partes, las que tenían relieve, las corté y pegué, generando así seis capas más y a estas partes le agregué el estilo de capa de sombra paralela para separarla de la imagen general.

Debajo de estas capas con partes, coloqué la imagen con la textura y usé la fusión de luz suave y luego puse la silueta y dos de las flores, éstas últimas con fusión de luz fuerte y en una esquina puse la imagen de la cámara con la fusión de color más oscuro.

Sobre los cuatro círculos del diseño abstracto coloqué un ojo, y encima de cada ojo un anillo con la fusión de luz focal. Trabajé la imagen de la mujer, previo borrado del fondo, en cuatro capas con fusiones de color más oscuro, luz focal, normal y color más oscuro nuevamente, poniendo esta última capa encima de todo el diseño.

Finalmente, entre las capas con partes puse los pétalos de flores y sobre todas las capas del diseño la mariposa.

La animación está realizada completamente en After Effects, trabajando la opacidad de cada capa y agregando luces en forma de nubes para un mejor contraste.

Les envío un gran saludo a todos y hasta la próxima.
Gracias por ver y leer hasta aquí.

La muchacha está como en éxtasis; es como si pudiera ver más allá de su visión recobrada..¡qué maravilloso diseño! Las figuras geométricas redondean la idea y me recuerdan los aparatos que se usan para medir la vista... no sé por qué pensé en ellos, quizás porque el texto ya dejaba pistas... Y qué bonito que le hayas dedicado este trabajo a tu mamá. 😍

Has colocado a un fotógrafo 👀 con una cámara Canon allí en el bosque... 😃😅

Abrazo Avecilla, me iré a dormir... que tengas un fin de semana muy lindo. Y descansa un poco también.

El fotógrafo soy yo jajaja no digas nada! Siempre cuando me acompaña me dice si le tomo una foto jajaja

Descansa! Muy buen fin de semana!!🤗
