 cropped,selective colours,lens adj. | ballyna
(1914) [2006-04-23 05:23:49] [3] [+] | dear friend,
I liked the shot and wanted to give a surprise for you:-)
I dreamed the eggs as some strange pedestrians walking or transporting themselves from one point to another.so I gave some strength to them both by some cropping and some lens adjustments.I also changed the format by cropping the sky part,anyway it was a dull sky.I cropped out the timewatch indeed,because I wanted to emphasize two traffic signs behind.I played with the curves tool,and selective colors.finally a 3D frame ,it was over;hope u like the result. |

 curves,neat image,fog mask,frame 3D | ballyna
(1914) [2006-03-06 05:57:46] [1] | the light was too much distracting the eye,so I started with curves tool.and used neat image afterwards for the noise.the shadow was the main point in my opinion,so I tried to emphasize it and eleminated other details by similarizing the colors.played with selective colors tool on green and red;I used shadows and highlight tools,applied sepia filter twice.I used bug eye and 28 mm.focal length lenses ;fog masked and 3D framed as a last step.

 crop,rotate,frameworks | ballyna
(1914) [2006-03-05 12:26:22] [2] | I thought it might work better with a tight cropping and cropped from the ear level first.then I rotated downwards to give a windy effect and played with levels tool to give better tones to the skin.auto contrasted afterwards and made some clonning for some small pimples on the face.used neat image to reduce noice and did some framework as a last step.

(1914) [2006-01-26 08:41:48] [3] | | I remembered we're at treklens and these sort of applications are free,and I decided to free transforming the apparatus to some other shot.so I thought giving the idea of 'apocalypse now' or 'waking up the city(neighbours) ' and choose a picture,carried it.I cleaned by clonning,blurring and played with curves tool and contrasted.applied neat image and framed before posting. |
