What can be done?The photograph above was one of the out-takes from a basic studio session. I cropped the image to tighten up on Dawn and fit a normal print perspective. I created a green colored background layer to keep track of my masking. Then I outlined the mask for her body and arms cleanly. The mask around her, shoulders and the hairs over her shoulders were feathered to keep the curliness of a natural I changed the background color to red and then applied texture to the layer. A little spotlight effect through a shadow layer created from the mask around Dawn for a bit of realism. Finally a digital “Polaroid” frame . The Giraffe Project is another example of an extreme retouching job. This image is a composite of five different photographs shot during two trips to the Miami Zoo. One for each giraffe, another for the background with trees. I hid a rock under the tree with a bush. The last image was to replace the grass. The resulting file was printed to a temporary adhesive vinyl. It is 63 inches tall by 33 inches wide. I took about 2 hours to apply it to the clients wall. A large picture of the image as well as photos of the installation can be found at: |
