Many of the images you'll see here are Photoshop edits that I have carried out

 

over the years. I still have a passion for photo editing now.

 

When editing our photo's, we are only limited by our own imaginations.

 

Although I used to own one of these a few years back, the bike below is not mine. As you can see I've put my company name onto the bike, and removed it from it's original background.

Great scooter, great image. Is that your business logo?

I love it, it looks real, not as if it's been photo shopped.

Thankyou for your comment Tony. Yes, the PSE is part of my logo but thats not why I posted the bike image. 90% of this thread will be devoted to examples of what can be done in photoshop. Photo editing has always been a passion of mine, but I have rarely done it for remuneration.

 

@Cindy... Thankyou Cindy. That's what all photoshoppers want to hear.... "It looks real"

This photoshop edit is one I'm very proud of. It won me first place in an on line editing competition. Nearly all the other entries where submitted by professional graphics artists.

Here's a fun thing to do. Take a photo of a piece of paper, in this case a map... and mess around with it in your favourite editing program.

 

Not all photo editing is done for fun. Sometimes it is done to restore a memory. The original photo here is 30 years old... My aim here was to put a smile on a mothers face..

 

I am so impressed. Not as much as what you've done, but by your imagination to make it happen.

 

I was a professional photographer for a time. Guess you call it professional because I got paid. I worked mostly for newspaper and advertising. I knew how to take a photo. I just never was creative. These photos are creative and I'm a bit envious.

Awesome, Frank. :thumbsup:

 

You've done some really impressive work.

I'm sure you're just being modest Tony. It's very kind of you to say that you're impressed. I am envious of you for being able to take a photo. That's something I never seem to get right. Now and again I might get a good one, but I think that's mostly down to luck.

 

 

@Cindy

You know just what to say to a guy Cindy... Thankyou. :)

My mates 10 year old son took this photo during a day out at the zoo. He said that the wire spoiled the image.

 

Wow, now I'm impressed, removing the wire changed the entire feel of the image!

Heck of an accomplishment.

The difference is amazing. You can't tell that the fencing was ever there.

It has always impressed me what can be done with photoshop. It looks like you do it at a high level.

Frank is the best Photoshop Guru I have seen, and I have been on Photoshop websites for years.

Frank is still teaching me.

I've seen some of yours, Dougie. You're pretty good at it yourself. :D

If you have learned from Frank, I can see why you are so good at it.

Frank is a very good instructor at all things computer so I can imagine that he would be a good one to learn from for Photoshop.

I can see that it takes a lot of patience and skill, not to mention how time consuming it must be.

Here's something that I done a few years back for my girlfriends niece. This is her and her children.

 

That's beautiful Frank.

Superbly done, Frank. :up:

I found this lovely image when looking for some new desktop wallpaper. I'd not seen the image before... but somehow it looks strangely familiar??

 

The technique used in the above image is called "Displacement Mapping", two images are used and one is image super imposed over the another one. Looking carefully Frank has imposed a photo of myself onto the mountain.

 

Well done Frank.

Sometimes there's too many people in an image....

 

I missed Dougie's image completely until he pointed it out. That's interesting (how many times can one say amazing.)

 

:clap:

Oh my... I didn't see it either until your comments.

It's creepy, lol and awesome. :thumbsup:
