Close up locust

No photo shop here - the flower itself was in very bright direct sunlight - and although there was a perfectly visible background behind it, it was so dark compared to the direct light on the flower - it pretty much just vanished.

That's a cool truck. Looks like you did some aftereffects on it?

Thermopylae_480 · Jun 10, 2010

yeah, some.

I was thinking of starting a "photoshop" club (Photoshop, Gimp etc), but I will be going back this summer (read: no internets :eek:

) and I wouldn't be able to maintain the page, does anyone want to start the club or I will just go ahead and start one, and leave it to rot during summer?

DanishDevil · Jun 10, 2010

I have enough clubhouses to deal with at the moment. That, and I really don't use photoshop all that much :roll:

King Wookie · Jun 10, 2010

I'm learning Gimp on the fly. There are a few good tutorials around, but not much.

A few more from me.

And from my latest photo shoot:

Please do share, I am learning Gimp too

I use http://gimp-tutorials.net/ for now.

My latest creations: (use them together in Win 7 wallpaper changing every 10 seconds)

freaksavior · Jun 10, 2010

What sort of filter is on that first picture? I'm using a wallpaper with that same effect on it right now, I think it looks really good.

Made a little whitebox from a cut-open cardboard box and a white T-shirt. Tested it out with my phone. I also added some photoshop stuff because I'm a shoopin fool.

I'm still learning with Photoshop. I got out of it for like 4 years and forgot a lot of things :/

First, thanks!

Second, it is called cross processing. In the days of film if you used the wrong processing chemicals for a certain film type the effect was achieved. Today in the wonderful world of Photoshop you just have to do a few simple steps. The effect creates a high contrast image and tends to make blacks have a blue hue and also introduce magenta into a lot of reds. Follow the below link to learn and enjoy!

And various other articles I stumbled across which I can't remember links to. But thx for that link. I will be exploring in detail when I get the chance.

If you have Photoshop why bother with GIMP? Also there is already a Photoshop clubhouse.

Yeah, I got pretty busy with school and really didn't need the added stress that moderating TPU! added, so I kind of retired and drifted away. I haven't just been a member since 2005 I think I'll enjoy just being able to come to TPU! to relax instead of get assaulted from all directions by people's whiny unimportant drama :laugh:

. I love TPU! though, and was happy to help build the forum into what it is today, so I can't stay away forever.

Im going to a butterfly museum next week, what would be better? a 50mm f1.4 or an 85 f1.8?

Honestly? Both. But if you can do only 1, my thinking is the 85. But I would have the 50 in your pocket.

freaksavior · Jun 16, 2010

I ordered the 85mm. I don't think im going to keep it.
