This is not a photo sire. You have overcooked it with too much PS touchup.
Show us when it is ready. Hopefully i am not blunt earlier.
I think the first PP-ed one was wonderful. Don't change it. The processing outcome has the same effect of Dave Hill's style albeit slightly different. you can take a look at his photos at www.davehillphoto.com
and this style works here because of the nice setting and the old looking car
Well done :thumbsup:
i still prefer the #2 BNW one....its good....So good that can be made into a commerical poster......:bsmilie:
two takes from lastboltnut's raw file in photomatix- dude the file you sent me, i don't have nef plugin or what because i don't use photoshop raw or whatever it's called
so just put it through hdr, somehow the programme cannot recover any of your clouds in the sky
color
sepia
did you give me the correct raw file? maybe send me the jpg too, if possible, possibly the program cannot handle evening out exposure of shadows and highlights during underexposure, based on experience.. so perhaps that's why
ya dude tat photo was overcooked and overexposure ...i preefer u #2 photo, and consider tat the original photo also nice u can play level want to put shrpness at the photo so it would b colour full..IMHO...but make it BW quite well too
nada, just plain photoshop
some layering and color balance
No possible to use Photomatix? Was hoping to see the difference between Photomatix 1 single raw "HDR" vs CS2 PP...
photomatix couldn't squeeze details out leh, i tried quite long already still get funny results =(
