Photoshop bits and bobs

[Abzynthe]

Ive been playing around with photoshop for a while, but never really got any further than just toning.
Heres my latest attempt

I have fiddled around with alot of the image settings, but I havent changed the picture. Ie taken things out or added anything.

Re: Photoshop of my RCZ

If I can be honest, you're pushing it too far so its totally unnatural. You have introduced halos. The first picture of this that you posted in the competition is far, far better. It's looks so much more natural. Less is more.

All you need to do in Photoshop is levels, curve and a little sharpen. Less really is more.

Put this as a layer on top of the original image. Then using a mask, remove the background from the above image to show the original but leaving this edit of your car visible. It will give a very surreal looking car in a normal inviroment.

Ooh thanks John I'll give that a go

I know what you mean RCZ1. In this example, I was going for a highly processed look. Its nowhere near as good as the other one I just like messing around with the different thing you can do. And maybe one day ill be able to put a T-rex in the background :lol:

No problem mate.
I work all day with photoshop but sometimes I like to push it.
Here's one of me trying to sort my head out!

Is this what you meant? I kept the sky as I quite like it

Re: Photoshop of my RCZ

That's very clever John but way beyond my capabilities with photoshop. I didn't even understand the instructions to Abzynthe

Re: Photoshop of my RCZ

Edit- yes I do understand. Is this double processing? Once for the sky, one for the foreground and then blending them together.

Re: Photoshop of my RCZ

Thanks I think it can be improved though as I think the car looks a little pixelly :?

Re: Photoshop of my RCZ

Right so you process one photo, then process the same photo another way. Put one over the other in a layer mask and then blend them together. Have I got that right?
