 Clone and contrast! | deanophotos
(2250) [2007-09-04 01:37:31] [3] | Hi Gilles
Hope you dont mind, after your reply I thought i'd do this W/S for you.
First of all I cloned out the bush in the bottom right corner in Photoshop, then increased contrast by pulling the dark slider of the levels tool back to where it should be, that in turn increased the contrast, finally added a black border using the stroke tool to frame these wonderful balloons.
Hope you like it.

(2250) [2007-08-24 17:04:22] [1] | Ok, so I opened saturation in Photoshop, went to the blue channel and reduced blue to about -20, the blue on the original I thought was a bit heavy, I then reduced red by about -12 for a slight less red and more of a heavy salmon, i then ran it through neat image in Photoshop and with a duplicated layer reduced the opacity to 75%. And that's it.
Hope you like it Helen.

 Grunge/Dragan effect | deanophotos
(2250) [2006-11-20 08:22:06] [5] | Hi Martha, dont usually do workshops but I just could'nt resist with this one.
I duplicated the image, applied channel mixer (mono) red = -50
green = -50
blue = +200
I then went to layers and clicked on Multiply and set opacity to about 40%. I then repeated the process and finally USM and added a yellow tone through variations.
Hope you like it. |
