Today I saw a cool tutorial on how to merge the colors of classical paintings into photographs. Using Photoshop CS it is a very easy process. Load the painting and your photograph. Put your photo in focus and then select Image ... Adjustments ... Match Color from the toolbar. From the Source dropdown, select the painting and click OK. That's it. You're finished.

The first photo is a building I photographed in Montevideo last summer. The second is a classic Renoir painting. And the third is the Photoshop mashup of the two.

Buenos Aires Meets Matisse

After leaving Uruguay, I went to Argentina and took the first photo. The second image is a Matisse painting. And the third is their hybrid.
