will you guys be able to access the raw info if i uploaded the .CR2 file?
 
Just had 5 mins on the jpg image.The image is very noisey so limited to what you can do...

Chuffing heck! Thats bloody impressive, mind if I ask what you did?
Click to expand...

Shadow/highlight
Curves
increased saturation
duplicated the layer
converted second layer to B/W using channel mixer
blended both layers using luminosity
flattened the image
ran it through imagenomics noise suppressor (thats why it looks a bit funny!)
smart sharpen in CS3

I think thats about it :lol:
 
WOW guys some nice results here, if you guys can do this from a Jpeg i am impressed i cant get that far from the raw, would love to see what you could do with that lol

Good work and keep em coming

Hi

Not bad at all Artona, did you do this from the raw and hdr no, from the jpg in the first post and using straight photoshop.

stew
 
Here you go mainly using the raw convertor in CS3 and levels bit of despeckle and cloning and a little sharpen

It's really depressing how easily some of you guys can do this - I've such a lot to learn:)
 
The sun has started to set by the time I remembered I was going to have a go at this :p



Originally tried to HDR it but it wasn't playing ball, so this has been tweaked to death in Lightroom and then into Photoshop for a bit more, honestly can't remember everything I did.

A very quick go but I ran out of time on it, snowed under with work.
