Hmm interesting - are you thinking that the light exposed from the good photo wasn't actually visable to the eye? Because I couldn't get the light through the glass to show that sort of effect from any angle Perhaps he's used two exposures together - one for the glass and one for the...

Shot 3 for me [emoji7]

I was trying to re create this sort of witchcraft!

As always critiques are encouraged. I wanted to get some colour from the wine onto the table but didn't seem to be able to pull it off.. More powerful light perhaps? Hope you're all well Adam

Here;s my owl Clones out the owls little accident, separated the background and upped the red curve to give a purply look to separate the owl better, yellowed up the beak and eyes and browned up the feathers slightly, added a vinette oh and cropped to take into account rule of...

a bit late but here's my attempt, natural look hopefully! edit: colour adjustment, cropped, blemishes removed and skin retouched (hopefully not noticable) stain removed from table and tv reflection darkened, eyes and teeth whitened

I am looking to get better at photoshop and lightroom retouching, if anybody would like a photo of theirs edited post it below and ill post the edited version when its done Adam :love:
