Had some fun in photoshop

Yeh, I had some fun in photoshop with a few pictures I found in my photo-folder. Eventually I might even put out some new posts with more pictures. (Also, if you want some of these as wallpaper, just send me a PM with an email-adress and desired resolution, and I'll send you a proper sized one).

Also, I know this isn't advanced shoop-skillz, all I did was play with the sliders in photoshop, but I still think it's fun.

Anyway, here's the two first ones. (Just click on the picture to see a full-size one, in case you didn't understand that).


Really satisfied with this one, even though the colours are somewhat extreme. (Don't have the original lying online, but it's just a blue sky with the sun hiding behind the cloud).


I like the colours in this one, and what I tried to make was a calm, relaxed mood.

Here's an (almost) identical clip from the same picture, unedited.


EDIT: Found an old picture lying around that I had fun with some time ago, could probably share that one too.

There's no real story behind this picture, I was simply bored. I like how it reminds me of a nuclear blast, though.

And the original

Thanks! I'll work out some more over the weekend.

Nice pics. I loved the first one. The thought I got was "destiny" when I watched it.

The one with the bench was cool too. It's pretty cool how photoshop can help liven up the pictures

This was a bit harder than I thought, I only have one picture to throw in here. But on the other hand, it's a fun picture, although not actually worked on in photoshop. Cool nonetheless

"Hey, listen!"

Lol, dude

A new one. First try with masks and layering while editing a photo, so it might seem a bit odd some places.



And here's the original



Not all that spectacular, but it was a bit of fun making it, once I figured out some basic stuff about masking.

Quick messing with some holidaypictures from Prague, I think I did a very good job improving the liveliness of the pictures, making them way more interesting and fun to watch than before.

Compare:


to the original:


Really simple too. Just quickly used the magic wand to hilight the sky, create a mask so the sky wouldn't be edited, added level-adjustment to change the brightness and contrast, and at last color balance, to give more life to the picture.

What is that?

its the glowing ball thingy that follows Link around, saying "Hey, Listen!" all the time. Its name is Navi or something.

haha, ooook. Cool.

ACTUALLY, it's the camera set to long exposure time (30s), and someone running around with a flashlight. But sure, it could be Navi as well.

Wow! That's pretty cool! What camera are you using?

Nikon D60. Awesome shit, but D5000 is better, with more focus points. I think D3000 and D5000 have replaced the D60 as well.

EDIT: First picture in this thread is taken with my dad's D40x, btw, but the difference between D40x and D60 is practically non-existent (there are one or two more features on D60 or something).
