Extreme Effect, Woman on Pedestal
by WC Lawson » Thu Sep 26, 2013 11:12 am
There seemed to be enough interest in the "Keys" image that I thought this might interest a few who want to push this process a bit further.
The main ingredients are:
180 Reflect, creating two images of the model. Cropping of the original for the purpose of leaving space for the two resulting images of the model.
Area Treatment of the Model on the Left. Thus, masking out the background.
Hdri treatment of the background. Giving it more definition for the effects to follow.
Stone wall effect to Background, using fade slider to control the brick wall effect.
Choose Gallery and do not choose background, thus giving the final effect to the entire image.
Until now the Model on the left has been untouched.
I choose Dry Brush oils for the final application.
I did remove the extended foot of the model on the left. I left a hint of it, for my amusement.
Whew! Trying to explain this was harder than actually doing it.

Well use of the brick wall effect, its worked perfect here.
The Dry Brush oils effect gives it a more dreamy touch wich fits well with the pose of the lady.
Personally I had tried to get her more free of the background, which would give it a bit more depth, but I like the result you get.
Ive did something similar some time ago, you can see it here
Thanks for sharing!

Arwin, I looked at your example. Yeah, same idea. I like what you did. I have a few variations as you did also.
I understand what you mean by distancing the (depth) of the image on the left. Totally different feel. I love SPE for the ability to be more "agile" in working with variations. By not applying an effect for the overall image and leaving the image on the left untouched gave the overall image a very surreal look. Which wasn't bad, just not what I was going for.
I am an accomplished photographer and I have taken a different path with photography. I seem to be pre-visualizing my work past the photograph many times. I do thank SPE for the tool to do this. I have also learned to take a weakness of a photograph as a starting point that leads to the final image.
Thank you Arwin, for the input and putting up with my rambling. I am over 60, so, I have an excuse.
