A Series in Duo Tone

[teerex]

Post processed some shots in Duo Tone with Gaussian Blur. Don't know if it works for you guys, but i kind of like the scenes in this tone.

I have the usual blue sky, white trees version too.

No it's not your screen, they look over on mine too.

Thanks for your feedback, now I know the colors to match for the duo-tone.

[vortex]

i think they look pretty good!

[night86mare]

Hrm, I like the style!

Where was this taken? =)

[Dennis]

#1 for me too, the rest I find too cluttered.
Nice tone.

Good that you like them, but I still think the skies a little over exposed.

Intended to add some grunge and burnt borders, but could not get a good workflow.

Other than #1, guess I'll have to re-do the rest 'cos the rest were done with different colors in the duo-tone stage.

Don't exactly know where this place is, a friend drove me there and I'm not good in directions when travelling in a car. Was told it's somewhere around Yishun Dam, not accessible by public transport.

[machiavellian]

i like the over-exposed ones though...cause it have some sorta
high-key effect...

[Pablo]

Hi teerex,

Yes, I do realy like the effect you have there

My favourite would be number 8.

Is that Max 2.8 that I see there ?

Actually, how would the overall image look if the person (Max 2.8 ?) was in normal colour ?

Like when you see a wedding photo and the bride is in b&w but her flowers are in colour ?

Cheers

Oh by the way, I will be seeing you sometime early September for a couple of days.
We (Coral and I) are arranging our trip now. We start out 13th of August for China.
