From one Angel to Another - PhotoCamel

marivil · 07-10-2008

Not sure if this is the right place to post. A photo shop challenge. This is a snapshot from a friend, I asked him to send a better quality photo . Can anyone make this photo appear Heavenly? Maybe colors and beams of light? I will pick the best and give it to the Grandfather of the Angel. He asked me to see what I could do but from what I have seen here, you guys really rock in photo shop.

thanks,
Gene

Might go better in fun stuff...just a thought...I'll see what I can do in PS

Ellbee99 · 07-11-2008

not a lot can be done with that low res image...

Sue90 · 07-15-2008

how about something like this...

with a little frame

marivil · 07-15-2008

WOW... you guys are great! Makes me wonder what you can do with a good quality photo!
Thanks, I am sure her Grandpa will love it and appreciate it.

By the way I use all freeware editing programs.

I have Gimp and Photoshop. What ones do you use?

thanks,
Gene

My favourite right now is photoscape but I use photofilter too. There are some good online ones that are pretty cool such as fotoflexer and picnik.

I like Sue's a lot but did this alternative version just for fun.

marivil · 07-16-2008

Very impressive !
thanks again.

I have never seen this done before with a picture.
How did you do it?
I have Photoshop CS3

I thought I would have a little play. The other edits here are great.

I love these types of challenges. It's so neat to see what others have done with images.
I went a bit more of the direction that DocG took. I wanted to accentuate the two angels without too much distraction from the outside. I used some color bursts and vingnetting to further distinquish the two:
Before:

After:

What I did:
First I took out the sign and the red flowers. I enhanced the colors, and took out the blue in the little girl's skirt. I cropped the image to bring them closer.
I then desaturated the statue, and brought in some hand light painting to lighten the face and darken the wings.
I ran some noise ware, and did an edge sharpening. Total project-about 3 minutes.

Thanks for the opportunity to work on such a lovely moment in time! I wish I had a full size image to work with. Such a pretty photo!

I used a lot of solarization and a canvas texture.
