Edge Effects
I found this project of taken pictures and making them look either painted or more professional by being creative to be fun and challenging. All of these photos were taken using a Cannon Rebel Xs.
Exp. 1/100 Fn 5.6 Taken under some trees at mid day when the sun was bright but the trees helped to defuse the light and a near by light colored wall helped to add some filling light.
I used a filter to give it and more painted or hand drawn look. I used the crosshatch filter and play with it for sometime before deciding that i like it.
I then deleted the image replacing it with a white fill and then used varies brush in history mode and got this lovely looking finished picture. Tip play with the opacity of the brushes to have some very strong and detail and others fade.
Exp. 1/400 F 5 I could pass this sunset up while driving home one day from work. Its colors were amazing.
I extended the canvas to create a white outside border and then mad a separate layer with a black rectangle I the cut a whole in it to make it look like a border. I colored it with the paint bucket the color of the clouds that are very close to the mountains. I thought it look alot like a inspirational poster so i put a saying on it just for fun. If you think its cheesy thats because its supposed to be.
F 5.6 Exp.1/160 Taken a just in between some rain downpours.
- F 5.6 Exp 1/2500
I used the surrealistic High Contrast and play around with it for a few minutes . I think this looks like a Movie poster for a horror or a vampire movie I call it Byu-I Twilight.
