Default Portrait before and after
This pic was a quick snap taken at a party. I added sepia filter and 'glamour glow' and vignette as well as contrast adjustments.

It is something I enjoy but I am new to as well as being new to photography.

Constructive comments welcome!

Before


After


Cheers,

Doc-G

Welcome to the Camel! Nice redo, but you did make his forehead a bit hot. PS is fun, isn't it?

Hi Goofup,

Thanks for the tips.

Is this the sort of thing you mean?

Better! You can see some of the detail in his forehead now.

Thanks very much. I guess I have to learn to 'see' properly!

There you go, only been a member for a couple of hours and already learnt something really helpful (to me at least!).

Thanks again.

Tone down the plants and wood growing out of his head. I would prefer hard light on his face, gives it more character Apart from that it is really nice
