This is my dad's face blended onto a picture of a grumpy looking Cardinal. I think in this case a gaussian pyramid approach to blending my actually work a litttle better, since the image boundary could be blurred more, and the colors are alreadf fairly close. |  |
This is a picture of me on a glacial mountaineering trip, blended on to a picture of a distant glacier. The white snow gets blended into me a little more than I would have liked, but I liked how it made my head appear to be in the clouds. You can also see an example of the algorithm blurring the background around my legs. |  |
This is my personal favorite. It is a picture of an egle diving to catch something blended with a picture of my friend in the mountains. The color blending is done well in this case, and because I made the mask fairly tight, there is not a lot of bluring that occurs. |  |
Here is another case where the algorithm does very well, although this example is easy since it is blending water to water. The images are a lake in the mountains of Alaska, and some breeching Orcas that I found on the internet. |  |
This is an example of where the algorithm does very poorly. What has happened here is that the image being blended in is on a dark background, and it is being blended over a patch of sky with a very light background. The result is the face gets overly whitened. |  |
