Re: Challenge 750: Float my boat
Anna, as a huge fan, I am rarely critical of you. But here is an unusual exception. This started beautifully in classic Anna style but, in the ending, with the diver at the window and, more particularly, the interior, the flabby contrast of the diver does not fit comfortably with the surrounding contrast. Most unusually for you it looks 'comped'. Itchy twitchy nits are always there ....... just waiting to be picked ........ _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Hi David, yes I agree. I didn't feel comfortable with that diver however my head isn't where it should be this week. Quite a bit going on. _________________ Dorothy: Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore |

Hydrofoil Re-float Fail The oil fire is almost out. Unfortunately she listed to starboard, took too much water and went down... recovery for scrap will soon be underway.  |

Unfortunately, I won't even be submitting a still this week. I am under a deadline and have to use all my time to meet it. Maybe next week. Some really great work. Michael Sinclair, it works as a still image for me. _________________ I'm still learning. |

Re: Challenge 750: Float my boat
Funny Frank, warping Putin and Trump into their own space. IWC, i'm impressed how fast you guys are. Lovely videos. David, your drawing room is amazing. That would have taken me ages. Nice one Ben, the light syncs well. Nice burning hydrofoil GKB. Tooquilos, you always present your videos so nicely. Nice model Michael. You toned it into your image very nicely. Lovely rework of the hydrofoil Mariner. You made ET's millennium. I don't know why I do these challenges. You guys are so fast and i've taken the whole week. I've added to my image every day until it is top heavy with clutter. I'm never satisfied with an image. My son says, "leave it alone dad. It's finished!"...and another shadow...another reflection....and then I mess it up with filters and try again. _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |

Re: Challenge 750: Float my boat
I've already picked up about 9 mistakes but enough is enough. Here's the original image I worked on. I'll post an illustration type image to. It seems to pull everything together...and disguise my slip ups.  _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |

Well Michael, despite my teasing, I knew you wouldn't disappoint. This is a beautiful reconstruction. I couldn't even get close no matter how hard I tried. The cleanness of your images never ceases to amaze me and once again has. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Dennis that is quite extra ordinary. Full of wonderful little details. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Re: Challenge 750: Float my boat
Nice work everybody. 
But dwint has caught my eye here: very realistic...and this took you a lot of time and effort judging by all the detail, so it's the gold star for you--great work!  |

Re: Challenge 750: Float my boat
Thank you David and Michael. I still maintain that you are all the true artists. You can take an image out of it's environment and make it your own. Quickly to...and that's what the advertising industry wants. I strive to twist an image to appeal but I cannot sell the idea to anybody. They have to wait for the end product...without variation...so it ends up being my idea and not theirs. I can see my mistakes and revert but I can't see their altered images...end game...worst for business. Get someone else...I love what I do....I don't know about my wife though....lol _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |
