Challenge 506: The woodwork shop
I visited a remarkable renovated windmill near Sandwich, on the south coast of England, last weekend. In the grounds of the windmill stood a number of workshops, including this rather splendid woodworking shop (as you may know, woodworking is a passion of mine).

It's a shame the scene is lit by a strip light behind the beam, though, especially since there's a convenient lantern hanging right next to it. Can you move the light source? And remove that cable? And perhaps add a carpenter to the scene?

High res is here.

Now this looks FUN. Just hope I can find the time. Lot of hand work needed.

I don't know how Steve can work in such a dark workshop. He should invest in a strip light.

Stefan, I really like your recoloring, dramatic lighting and overall composition.
Job well done!

I recently upgraded from C5>CC
I noticed the new “Color Lookup” Adjustment layer.
That is a big WOW feature. So cool.
Really saves a lot of steps from all the other methods in the past.
Also I have found http://www.ononesoftware.com/products/effects8free/

Lots of cool stuff.
I first started with Photoshop long ago.
Mostly I work with Illustrator and InDesign.

Lots of toys in the toy box I always say.
I learn something new each time I turn on the computer.
Steve is just making it fun. Thank you.

Kathryn

As much as enjoyed this exercise, I find the image I had posted here was just too mean and so I am deleting it.

I have been feeling guilty about this all day. I am deleting this entry because I just can't in good conscience post something so mean-spirited. I beg the forgiveness of everyone on this forum, especially Steve.
