Tower of Babel

Tower of Babel

Tower of Babel, Photoshop collage by Harold Davis. View this image larger.

This is a Photoshop collage based on Persistence of Reflections and More Oakland Reflections. I think it is best viewed at a larger size.

Like my first collage based on the Oakland reflections, Civilization, the collage is of the two images combined. I separated each into component color channels in LAB and RGB color spaces, selectively inverted and equalized the channels, and combined using layer masks and a variety of blending modes (primarily Multiply, Overlay, Soft Light, Color, and Luminosity).
