And a new attempt:

Hey Giant....thats a pretty good PS...so cool in fact I can't see it? Is this some kind of Danish "Emperor's New Clothes" photoshop trick? :wink:

Anyway, not to disappoint those who have been expecting to see a Prince, I snapped one yesterday......

Edit....I see you got yours working now :grin:

.... some nice PS work as well. Congratulations.

Nice one, clearly shows that you don't need any fancy equipment to participate in this gallery post :top:

Here's a picture I took with a SE K550i a while ago I had in PS for a few minor tweaks. Thought I'd trow that in here as well. As for what it is, I have no idea, anyone care to guess? :ponder:

My advice would be to go buy yourself some expensive photography equipment you muppet.....none of it is in focus :grin:

For a more cinematic approach, I cropped, sharpened (although its hard to sharpen blur :wink:

) lightened and then applied a colour trick to enrich the blue of the glove. A small vignette poured with loving care at the end

Boonen, I'm guessing thats the end of a bar? .....of course I'm wrong :wink:

You led me astray before LJ! :lol:

But it is looking a bit better, thanks.

I have an EOS300, although I would love its digital brother. Still, wouldn't fit in my jersey pocket!

<we know you aren't very good at picture taking, but you forgot to post another crappy one>:tomato:

My version of your pic RTW

Keeped the blue tint

To all: So when will the "bike in studio" pics show up :grin:

Just like this Crumpton for example, would love to see other bikes in this setting.

Here another try with the PS... Thanks Ras

Two effort more in my way to be a better photoshopper... Don't know if I'll ever get there

First pic is of my Simplon. Next is of me on the frontpage of the magazine that I'm doing some reviews for and my new brake pads...

I think Ras would agree with me....the trick with PS, like so much else in life...."less is more". Start off with a good image and sure, PS shop it, but make sure the PS adjustments aren't too obvious.....thats what makes an image a winner (along with the subject matter)

.......if you dont, you run the risk of losing the credibility of the image...case in point......

I think thats about as good advice as I could offer. Nice work though Giant :wink:

My two cents.
The weather is very bad here so I unfortunately can't take pictures outside

by **Shamus** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 8:23 pm

I did try also...

I am writing a new article and thought it was funny to work with a cool picture:

by **Giant DK** » Sun Jan 20, 2008 8:24 am

Played around with the light and got this:

The same but reworked.
