Description
This work is a combination of 2 images, the auto shot at a area car show and an alley scene from my old neighborhood in what is known as the "Riverwest" area of Milwaukee which still has some cobblestone alleys and I'm sure under years of asphalt most of the streets are original cobblestone. Blended the images and added enhancement to the fender, bumper and side hood to reflect the brick off adjacent buildings. Tweaked in Photoshop and completed in Painter.
Photo manipulation (also called Photoshopping or --before the rise of Photoshop software-- airbrushing) is the application of image editing techniques to photographs in order to create an illusion or deception (in contrast to mere enhancement or correction), through analog or digital means.Retouching tools from the pre-digital era: gouache paint, kneaded erasers, charcoal sticks, and an airbrush.
In digital editing, photographs are usually taken with a digital camera and input directly into a computer. Transparencies, negatives or printed photographs may also be digitized using a scanner, or images may be obtained from stock photography databases. With the advent of computers, graphics tablets, and digital cameras, the term image editing encompasses everything that can be done to a photo, whether in a darkroom or on a computer. Photo manipulation is often much more explicit than subtle alterations to color balance or contrast and may involve overlaying a head onto a different body or changing a sign's text, for example. Image editing software can be used to apply effects and warp an image until the desired result is achieved. The resulting image may have little or no resemblance to the photo (or photos in the case of compositing) from which it originated. Today, photo manipulation is widely accepted as an art-form.

Thanks Mary for all your support!;)....Side note: those reflections in the fender and bumper were meticulously placed as this car was captured in a field;)
