Love the Vignetting technique... even a better job how you photoshopped the sharpies off the wall...

here is a before and after. "Old Carriage"

Before, or straight out of the camera.



After!
I dropped the opacity of the sharpened layer to 49%. Thought my colors didn't look natural. Merged down. Duplicated and changed the blend mode to soft light. I reduced that opacity to 55%.

Interesting technique ... after making the changes to the duplicate layer, I duplicated that layer and lowered the opacity to 50%.

Before:


After:

It really did improve the looks of this picture. I did add a lens flare.

Cool and very east/fast technique, Kimi,



...just had to do one more,



In both instances, "before" is straight from the camera - untouched. You know from past homework I can't leave well enough alone. For both I stamped visible (Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E) and changed the blend mode of that layer to Soft Light.

O.K. I have been trying for an hour to post my before and afters and just can't seem to
get them to upload. Maybe I need the instructions on the size I need to put them so they
won't be big?
Can anyone help!

Hi Bern

If you are attaching to the post, the largest size can only be 500 pixels.

If you want to use Pixentral. I would make the largest size 700 pixels.

Here is my before and after,
all comments appreciated

I did not see any differency, but I can see a difference now that I posted them

Thanks Kimi for not giving up on me, I don't usually have so much trouble with things like this...
Maybe I just tired...
