Isn't good! Jan 02 16 03:30 pm Link For good information about dodge and burn ... http://nataliataffarel.tumblr.com/post/4551849530/dnb and some great examples, before and after .... ( put mouse over image ) http://digitalphotoshopretouching.com/r … ng-gallery Jan 05 16 02:04 am Link if you're looking for some sort of magic technique to make anything look like something, there isn't one. It all starts with the lighting and exposure, you need to learn the tools available in post production and what they do and then go shoot with that in mind in order to achieve a certain look. You can't take just any image and make it look a specific way unless you shoot it in a way to accommodate the techniques to begin with. PS can only take an image up one step in quality, two if you're really good. If you want smooth yet sharp skin, then you first have to light and expose it properly. No amount of messing around in LR or PS will get you something that isn't there to begin with. Jan 05 16 10:54 am Link Lots of good advice here, yes the image has to have the right lighting to start. Still not overly sure which look you're after but here's a tip for those hazy image looks. Lightroom 6 has a new de-haze slider and this can be used to add haze too, simply move the slider the other way! https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/how-t … ehaze.html Hope it helps  Jan 18 16 11:26 am Link Jan 18 16 02:03 pm Link |
