Critique / Re: Before And After
Last post by Anna M. Wood - September 01, 2024, 05:08:06 PMQuote from: tajmahal250 on August 25, 2024, 08:02:07 AMJust watched the latest COAP editing workshop. Learned lots of good things, once again. (Creating your own light source with a radial gradient = mind blown!).
Decided to use what I learned and combined that with a motion blur edit in Photoshop (Shot at 1/400 that day, so no motion blur, oops...). Did some dodging and burning on the bottom part of the fuselage to bring out the white underside of the plane, and increase the saturation on the top. Linear gradient on top and bottom to tone down the sun.
Well done Taj...
