Post your 'before' and 'after' pictures

[Robin W]

I took pictures of my sister's dog, Brady. She decided she wanted the grey blanket to be red. I told her I thought I could make that happen. After that I decided to see if I could make the background white. The Hue and Saturation adjustment layer is pretty amazing. The first picture is the original.

This is what happens when you introduce photoshop to your 6 year old grandson.

Thanks but I was just playing with some of the new things I learned. And I have always wanted to make the moon look bigger.

Your on the right track, it does look though like you used the shadows and highlights controls, while they can work wonders i find if you use both of them it can spoil the image

Thanks, Mike.

I just started learning and using Darktable for maybe no more than 2 weeks. I did use shadows and highlights for this one. Would you be kind to lighten me up with more insight on the negative effect happening? Appreciate.

I cant give you a technical answer but using both together tends to give the image a murky look is the best i can describe it, cant do a lot with it due to my limited ability but this is what ACR came up within photoshop, plus i took the lamp post out becuse it was too prominent, you will need to click it to enlarge it because i cant make it post bigger in a quoted thread.

This is the before shot. I accidentally cut off the top of her crop when I took the picture. I used what I learned in the 30 days of photoshop with Phlearn and was able to save the photo.

I am guessing increased canvas size, content aware fill, and a little retouching work?

 

[Robin W]

Yes and I would say you are a man with some experience.

LOL. Also a man who fails to properly frame my subject properly even after all of that experience.
