My humble effort

[nohoneythatsnotanewlens]

I have perfected it!

[jfrancho]

Yes, you have! The Canon is being used to take photos, while the Nikon sits on the shelf.

[nohoneythatsnotanewlens]

Agreed! I too save my good equipment for the important work.

What's tough is the reflection in the lens in the camera on the right.

That's what I thought too when I first looked at this but on a second look I realized it is actually the original reflection. Just a lucky fit. Great job anyway. I still don't know how to do this.

Great job by all.

New here..love to photoshop (new at that too) so this thread caught my attention.

I should likely lurk more but I noticed some Canon/Nikon banter.. please tell me it is all in fun and that people don't get too wound up about this stuff here.

and if some people do get wound up..tell me who they are so I can stay away.

Hi garyk,

Welcome to the Camel

The Canon/Nikon banter you will find in this site is of a different, far more friendly chit-chat nature than on other forae

And should someone get too wound up, then the Mods gently advise a cooling down period, voluntarily or if the winding gets too persistent forced by a temporary ban

Discussions and debates are great , but personal attacks and namecalling are not allowed here

Stick around, lurk some more, post some more, and before you know, you will be a Camel addict too, and you won't even have to inhale!

Kindest regards,

Max@Home

Thanks Max.. If I may call you that.

I was hoping it was of the friendly kind.. a bit of teasing and joshing is great. As long as it doesn't get personal.

I'll poke around some more over the next few weeks and see what I can find.

[Paul Shields]

Gary, don't worry - we definitely don't get into brand wars on this forum. It's one of the primary rules of the site. The likes of Max will make sure that these things never go beyond gentle joshing...

[jfrancho]

That's true, but 4/3's cameras are junk. (I said this just to get a rise out Mr. Pickles)

[Paul Shields]

You just need to be within 1000 yards to get a rise from Mr. Pickles .

I'm new here too. And no one ever picks on me. I use a Pentax ist DL, mainly because when I was looking at DSLRs, that what my 3 lenses worked with ($$$ always a great motivation). I started out years ago with a Pentax K-1000 and have had good success with the brand ever since. If my current gear ever goes up in flames, or is dropped into the ocean, I will consider one of the other more popular brands.

Now, Photoshop . . . that's a whole other story. I have Elements 4 because 7.0 was driving me to drink. I just don't use it enough to be proficient at it. I really do want to get better with it, and will try some of the challenges. The attempts on this thread were awesome.

Magnetic lasso, trace outline of cameras in picture.Cut picture make NEW picture fill in with color of background of 2nd picture then paste the cutout camera from 1st picture. *If you have trouble I can do it then email picture to you.I use PS CS2 but, plan to upgeade to PS CS4 next week.A book called PHOTOSHOP CLASSROOM IN A BOOK at BORDER'S or BANES & NOBLE is a very helpful book. not to simple or not to complicated for most people. I have used Photoshop since version 5. Larger LEARNNG curve but, WELL worth it. Capture NX2 & LightRoom 2 are excellent photo editors. Photoshop is HARD but, the results are betterthan the lessor cutdown version like Elements 7 or others.

Sorry but...way too choppy! If you haven't mastered the pen tool in PS you are missing allot!
The pen tool is a MUST for any PS user and there is no substitution.
If I can find it...I will post a tutorial that I made, showing how the pen tool is used.
