Yeah this is my 400th post. :woohoo:

Christell I totally agree. Lighting on the original image also has a lot to do with it. If it is washed out (such as the games in the sunshine that I photographed...) Might boost colors on the original before even beginning. I got the color on the uniforms to pop at the end by decreasing the brush size and keeping the opacity really low and go over the uniforms quite a few swipes.

Keep up the great work these look great.

Hi Angela,
Finally had time to play a little bit so tried your tutorial. Not too sure I used a great image but it was fun!

Is that my nephew? Go back over just his body with a smaller brush like 100 pixels at 13% so I can see him. :biggrin:

Ladybug - thank you.

I wanted to try a non sports photo and see what the effect would be. Here is a lighthouse off of vashon island close to where I live.
