Wish I had taken this beautiful modeling image of my daughter-in-law, but at least I have it to try some nice post-processing effects on. Whew! But overall it does have a distinct look and I really like it……Digital Lady Syd A layer mask was added and the center was painted out so the image was not too dark in the focal point area. The last step added Shadowhouse Creations vintage postcard texture set to Hard Light at 85% layer opacity. A Curves Adjustment Layer was added to add contrast back into the image. Next Viveza 2 was applied with emphasis on the focal point. ( Settings applied were: Folded paper texture by Andrew 2012 – set Master fade back just a little bit next Vignette fade edges by Tony – Reduce Fade set a little left of center, Brightness 1.015, Contrast -0.247, Linear Contrast -0.258, and Radius 1757.) A New Layer was added and some clean up was done. (Monet II preset: Paint Opacity 1.00, Stroke Width 0.14 Color Overall Lightness 0, Yellow Sat -0.50, Green Sat 0.27, and Magenta Sat 0.39 Lighting Light Direction x 0.84 and y 0.34.) On a duplicate layer Smart Photo Editor was applied. ( These are the settings for the preset I created: a Vintage Camera preset and the Basic Adjustments Detail Extraction 17%, Brightness 35%, Contrast -21% and Saturation 19% Bokeh at 88% blur strength and Boost Highlights at 84% Dirt & Scratches at 82% strength and 1st row/2nd texture Photo Plate at 20% strength using 2nd row/2nd over texture Lens Vignette set to Amount 37%, Rectangle and Size 77% Film Type Warm 2nd line/2nd over with center Neutral to Faded, 52% strength, Grain per pixel 429 and center Soft to Hard and Levels & Curves dragging RGB curve down in midtones were added.) Topaz Impression was applied. Topaz (see sidebar for website link) Star Effect was applied and it place bright dots along the flowers to emphasize this area ( Started with Jewel Sparkle I preset with these settings: Star Settings Combined, Burst Star, and Brush Size 99 Main Adjustments Threshold 0.13, Luminance 0.51, Size 0.50, Angle 70.40, Number of Points 8, and Spread 0.07 Color Adjustments Sat 0.64, Temp 0.54, Rainbow Strength 0.25, Rainbow Freq 0 and Additional Effects Secondary Points 0.01, Glow 0.26, and Ring Flare 0.) On a duplicated layer Nik’s Analog Efex Pro 2 was applied. First in Lightroom Seim’s (see sidebar for website link) Super Her X and Warm Classic presets were applied along with Delnea’s Backlight Vertical Left preset. Here is another example of using them together. Recently I have done several blogs on Photoshop plug-ins that give some wonderful results. This is an example of just trying different effects to get a different look. This image was taken at Epcot, Disney World, Florida. Last step involved adding a little sharpening on the whole crab in Nik Viveza 2 by increasing the Structure and Contrast sliders……Digital Lady Syd A Text Layer was added and the Architects Daughter font was used. Painted back the crab and some of the surrounding sand. Created a stamped layer (CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+E) and added Nicky Laatz,s paper 12. Used a layer set to Overlay to darken the edges of the crab and an Exposure Adjustment Layer with just the eyes selected to sharpen them. In Photoshop the Shake Reduction filter was applied and then Topaz (see sidebar for website link) Impression’s Da Vinci Sketch I preset was applied ( these are the adjusted settings: Strength 0.79, Stroke Brush Size 0.64, Paint Volume 0.08, Paint Opacity 0.74, Stroke Width 0.24, Stroke Length 1.00, Spill 0.24, Smudge 0.35, Coverage 0.55, and Coverage Transition 0.32 Color Orange Saturation 0.41 and Lightness -0.11 Yellow Hue 0.31, Saturation 0.70 and Lightness 0.01 and Texture Strength 0.24 Paper-1). First started in Lightroom and used Seim’s (see sidebar for website link) PW4 preset Les Miserables. I photographed him on Ormond By the Sea Beach a few weeks ago. The material is natural, breathes, and is very gentle to the skin at the same time as it falls beautifully.Just a Sand Crab wishing everyone in the U.S. The fabric we have carefully selected is TENCEL™ Lyocell, a sustainable and ecological cellulose fabric with OEKO-TEX Standard 100.
