The "how would you edit this photo" game.

C'mon Jim lad, could give us some higher quality version :P

Didn't get any feedback from my last go in this thread but, I enjoy reading through this so much that I thought I might try and have another go :)

Apologies if we missed you out last time Bryan..

You mean this?

My positive feedback would be... it looks like you've just added grain and made a light sepia overlay, but you've called it Glasto 1970 and left a modern day bus in the pic :D

Should of known better to complain with your standard of work in here :lol: :lol: The bus... well I was going to come up with some kind of great excuse but I cant *fail* :lol:

Have I managed any better with my latest entry :p

I actually like what you've done with that pic. I take it you've used the built in Photoshop HDR filters for that effect. Its nice!

I think the photo could still do with something in the foreground, but thats up to your imagination! :)
 
Strangely I didn't use the prebuilt HDR :lol: Combination of black and grey convert, and then use the brightness contrast to boost contrast right up. Finish off with a fiddle with highlights and shadow :)

Then add a vignette and voila, one dodgy pic :lol:

I did think about foreground stuff but need to get my skills up before then, I'm not quite sharks with lasers shooting meerkats in the sea standard yet... :p
 
Looks to me like you've already surpassed that stage mate, very nicely done!

I suppose i shall have a go tonight if i have time!

Sharks with frikken lazer beams attached to their heads here i come!
 
Edit to remove picture

looks like this thread is dying on its arse ..I dont suppose its worth extending the time frame for this :shrug: in fact with just a couple of people putting one up is it worth picking a winner..dont mean to be negative but come on :D

In fact stuff it Brian you win ;)

Obviously up to Mr G but I think it should be extended :)

I have not been able to edit recently but if it coming down to the language in 2178 this will become a thread to avoid. Picture bears no resemblence to original and I do not expect to be faced with language like that.

Dear me, it was only meant as a bit of fun, nothing meant to offend. I'll remove it from my post. Avoiding an entire thread through one post though does seem a little silly :shake: the picture was in reference to the flying shark conversation.

I refuse to win because no one else entered :lol: extend the deadline and lets hope some more people get involved!

hang about, vantage and hawkmoon entered - so you could take it as an honourable win and just stick a picture up

and everyone who's getting wound up just take a chill pill - this thread is suposed to be fun , it wont encourage more people to join in if all the regulars are squabling :nono:

We've got to expect dips and peaks in people joining in because people get busy, they have lives outside of TP, they lack inspiration for a certain shot etc (in my case i have a line fault which is limiting my connection to 48kb/sec which means i cant upload pictures at the moment - BT are 'alledgedly' fixing it today - if they dont they will get my size ten boot up their bum tommorow)
 
they have lives outside of TP

I Don't beleive that is technically possible... :lol:

Well we will leave the final decision upto Mr G, if he upholds my glorious victory then I will post a picture up tonight, if he decides to carry on the competition then we will go from there :)

Someone should make reference to this on b3ta if you want more entries. Not sure they would all be SFW though...
 
I started doing a DDay landings type thing but give up as I am too rubbish lol

I agree. It’s hard enough sometimes to find an idea, let alone execute it in PS. I've made a couple of edits recently that where so poor I was to embarrassed to enter them. Also I think the Holiday Silly Season may have something to do with this as well.

Not really one to give a monkeys about language but as my son (9) really enjoys all the edits in this forum I prefer it all kept on a clean basis. And get everyone involved from all ages.

Bring on the next Pic!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Dont see anyone squabbling?

It has slowed down a bit, i havent helped by not posting a few entries lately :(
 
OK peeps, gave it 20 mins and here we go!

I dont mean to cause offence, but as a newbie to photoshop i just view this thread to see what ideas you guys come up with. The only thing i can learn from it is timescale - some spend five minutes on it, some twenty minutes. If there was a very very simple 1 sentence description along with the pic, i'd find it alot more informative :thinking:

Spose the clues in the thread title ' how would you edit this photo game' - not lesson :(

cheers

from the time the picture is posted it is usually 2 days to do any edit you like it might take you 5 mins or it might take you the full 2 days as long as u post it by the finishing time it does not matter how long u take
 
I generally take up to 2hrs max, then i know ive spent FAR TOO MUCH time on something and stop, usually probably between 40-60mins is enough.

You are right though, but i only post my methods if someone asks...
