Feel free to move this to general guys...just though I'd join the others.

Most of my shots are very mediocre I feel so after finding these two... add a couple more hours of processing...Hmmm

..I decided I couldn’t mix the Good bad and the ugly...so just these two to show you all.

Hey, it could have been worse; I nearly managed nothing at all.

Viewing the passed.

Not sure what you'll make of this one, difficult to describe where this image came from in my mind, loads of places I guess... but when I saw these dummy's hanging against all that texture I knew it was the image and time to give the idea a go...

...worked way better than I could have hoped.

Hope you like it. :nuts:

Woah!
I really like the both of those. The water & rocks in the first are faaantastic, lovely processing.
The second is pretty ker-azee, but I do really like it. Well spotted stuff!

I like these two.
The first has been transformed from a a fairly mundane shot (I know I have hundreds!) into something really interesting to look at. The light on the water and the texturisation of the rocks etc.
The second is really striking and makes for a compelling image. What effects did you utilise to transform them ?

Thanks guys.... Mini and Hoodi, you do realise, that with my mistakes and all....that we'll have to go back and re-shoot....its in the rules :rules: ;)


Hi Robin ;
The lost and found sun bleached babies dummy's hanging of a wall; Is simply a colour inverted image, some levels and selective layers work with the original and a coloured mask to improve detail... touching up shadows or rather highlights and getting the balance between a real looking wall and the surreal looking dummy's.

Thanks for your comments and welcome to TP fella....nice blogg, or whatever it is. :thumbs:
