Photography Thread

JokeyLoki · 03-09-2008, 05:29 PM

I got inspired by Mariner's thread, and found my camera... also started doing some basic Photoshop tutorials. (I don't know why I made them a bunch of different sizes)

Messing around with saturation/color selecting/color replacing...

This looks kinda retarded, I was just messing around, but I'm just happy I figured out how to use layers in PS...

SNOW! View from my sister's apartment....

Not terribly interesting, but this is the view at the back of my apartment... I messed with the color a bit, it was pretty dull.

That one of the snow is really beautiful. I love all of those trees lined up in a row like that. Your sister is lucky to have such a view!

It is rather sexy...

Floppy Nono · 03-09-2008, 05:54 PM

do you know if the bench is single? do you think i should go over and talk to it?

JokeyLoki · 03-09-2008, 06:07 PM

I don't think it's single... it lives with this one. Though it does look like they're a bit seperated.

Floppy Nono · 03-09-2008, 06:27 PM

i am a graphic designer - coincidence? I THINK NEY!

ok lesson 1. (haha!) in photoshop:

if you go to the option "mode" and then switch from RGB to LAB you can get a more vivid or dynamic photograph

ok after LAB - go to curves and there will be three settings in the scrollbox - L, A and B

you want to go to B and then pull the righthand corner little black box to the left - say - half of a square on the graph

then the same with the bottom lefthand corner black box to the right half a square

this will bring the colours up and give you a MUCh better image - just fiddle around with it!!

then revert back to RGB - fin

JokeyLoki · 03-09-2008, 06:56 PM

Cool beans, I'll fiddle around with that... thanks!

JapanAlex · 03-09-2008, 07:05 PM

for an example ----

oh and I have added some clarity with sharpening - 120% 0.7 pixles and 0 on the bottom box

dark and light is too strong and more brushing needed but really late for work hahaahha!!!!

The only picture I was ever proud of was taken about three or four years ago. I found it again some time ago and was disappointed that it actually wasn't so great at all, especially not in b/w [I have no idea why I changed the colors].
Anyway, let's see if I can find it.

Mo · 03-10-2008, 05:19 AM

Wow, this is even worse than I remembered:

I have to add that I was very much in love with that girl back then. Yes, this is a girl.
