[QUOTE="eurotrash, post: 90068, member: 9237"] I'm a lightroom kinda guy for my normal photography. I recently had a girl ask me to shoot some shots of her for a tattoo magazine, and I was working with sticks and rocks, literally as far as room/lighting/space/etc was concerned. I'm now trying to edit some of these photos and really just need to isolate the subject on a white background for further editing. I'm having a lot of trouble with the subject's hair. We used a fan to kind of blow it around, and now it's becoming impossible to select the hair and simply add white background around it. Can anyone point me in a direction that's easy and simple to follow? I've tried following some youtube vids but I just can't get things to work like they are for some reason. I'll get up to say, step 5, then step 5 won't work. I'm so puzzled..I don't understand why photoshop has to be so complicated. I've never liked it for that reason. I'm all for reading a book and learning something, but when it comes to PS, it's just a bible and really, I just don't have the time for that. Hence, LR4 lol.:dejection: Alternatively if someone wants me to send them the images and do it for me, hey...that'd be rad too :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
