 Curves | chrysalis
(323) [2008-10-18 02:59:11] [1] | I used a curves adjustment layer to...turn back time :) - I also removed the moon.
Just to make myself absolutely clear, Mike's image is a hundred times better - this workshop is NOT a correction of any sort. I simply wanted to try that out. |

(6915) [2008-09-16 10:15:36] [1] | | There is certainly nothing wrong with this wonderful photo. I just wanted to see what would happen with a cruves adjustment and by adjusting the blue color.(I added a bit in the midtone range) |

 Zoom Out | mpr
(2118) [2008-03-16 09:49:01] | | The original shot was a zoom in at 200mm (300mm+ with crop factor). This shot is probably at 18mm or so showing how far away I truly was from the mountain. To give the viewer an even better sense of scale, these are in general, the relative size of the trees the dot the landscape in the original shot. Note: These two shots were PP at different times and for this one I chose to cool it down a bit so it contains a bit more blue in the sky than the original. |

 Convert BW, Shadows, Highlights, Crop | machinelove
(16007) [2008-03-16 08:39:22] [2] | There was nothing wrong with the original Mike, it's just lovely. However, I felt like seeing how the scene woudl look with a crop that moved the peaks slightly to the right. I also converted to B/W added a blue tine, and played with the shadows and highlights sliders in CS3. Hope you don;t mind.

 Golden Touch (12) mpr

 Levels and shadow highlight | andtine
(1107) [2007-10-07 11:36:16] [1] | Hi Mike, I had a go at bringing out the detail in the rock and sea but it's not easy as there was no golden sun light on them in the first place. However to achieve what I have done I did the following.
1. make a levels adjustment layer and adjusted the levels to bring detail back into the rocks. This made the rest of the picture look very bright, so using a large soft paintbrush with black selected I first clicked on the layer mask for levels and painted out the effect in the places that didn't need it. I then flattened the picture.
2. Next I copied the picture as a new layer and on this used the shadow highlight tool in CS2 again i made adjustments to bring out the detail of the rock. This adjustment also made the rest of the picture bright so I added a layer mask to the copy layer and again using the paint brush and black I painted out the areas that didn't need the effect and flattened the picture.
And that's it. |
