As Seen On TV

The blurred thing in the bottom left is a video camera. These girls were being filmed at the carnival and I decided to steal a few shots of them myself.

I had a fairly good idea that I wanted to do these high-key and I like the result. There are a few distracting elements in the frame but I think the emotion still comes through.

This is brilliant matey. A really happy photo and the toning is spot on. I like seeing new detail on a second look, like the packet of fags in mum's hand.

Tritone FTW !! (or Duotone)

Actually it was toned with a curve :)

Nice shot Jamey, good use of toning on the processing.

The emotion really does come through and I love the high key look. The catch lights in the middle girl's eyes are fantastic.

Can't beat capturing real emotion that isn't forced for the camera. Nice pic, Jamey

That's stunning. The extra bits in the photo just add to the depth of the image for me, and don't detract from the impact at all.

Fantastic processing and toning! Love the expressions too, great shot!

Did you use the diffuse glow on this one?

Jamey, Wed 6th Sep, 2006, 10:49pm
No - just a guassian blurred layer with reduced opacity.

Love the high key. It seems to work best on females as it softens the skin nicely. Good job.
