"Roommates" I enhanced the levels before doing anything. I touched up some pimples and smeared makeup as well as making the overall look of the skin more smooth. I color matched "Hayden" with "Hayden picking up a rock" because I liked the latter picture's color better. I then burned the edges to draw the eye into the subject more. "Shoot for the Moon" was originally taken on a ferry on the James River near Jamestown Virginia. I had to erase a lot of unnecessary stuff from the background to be able to make the picture look like I wanted it to look. After erasing all of that I followed the tutorial to make the luminosity effect. I decided to make the gradient look like the sunray. I thought it came out to look pretty good.
The luminosity look great! The colors you chose are look really good.
ReplyDeleteWow, great job. You made a rather ordinary picture turn out to be quite amazing.
ReplyDeleteAgain wow, love it. It has the effect of take your breath away.
ReplyDeletegood edits. Love the luminosity. Good color enhancements on the first.
ReplyDeleteI must say, I'm a fan of the Luminosity! I haven't seem many pictures that pull it off that I like, but this is perfect. Good job!
ReplyDeleteWow. I'm so impressed with each of these. I love the character of the boy near the water. The luminosity shot - amazing! I think that shooting her looking into the light was an excellent pairing for the effect.
