Here's a couple shots from a series I did a while ago and have redone recently. Just kind of looking for any feedback you could give. Any thoughts on improvement would be especially helpful. Thanks in advance! BEFORE ![]() AFTER ![]() BEFORE ![]() AFTER ![]() Apr 28 10 07:20 pm Link Love the second one, so cool. Not crazy about the crop on the first though. Apr 28 10 07:22 pm Link I like them both, very cool. Only critique I have (particularly on the first one) is that your cloning is a little messy and detectable, particularly around where you worked on the arrow tip and parts of the former shadow of her body. Go back and blur these areas and texture them for a seamless result. Apr 29 10 02:29 pm Link Stephanie Bea wrote: How come? Apr 29 10 07:11 pm Link Wow. Does anybody ever come into this forum?

The background suggestion is a thought though. You would probably get better results then me I would imagine. But I'll have to give it a try.

The shadow is actually FAB so I wouldn't remove it, its actually really neat they way it sits. The angle is almost like a second contortionist coming out behind her......

May 17 10 04:29 pm Link the body suit has way to much detail. Here is an example to show you how i did a 1930's image, this is no retouching just raw and lightroom. So if you take the detail work down a bit in the bodysuit i think you are very close to what you want. ![]() ![]() May 17 10 04:32 pm Link Star wrote: The suit was kind of loud and it was something that I talked to the model about but it was a new suit that she just had to have photographed. Are you suggesting removing the details in post? May 17 10 04:38 pm Link I want to remind you I did this off a jpg, which is not ideal ![]() May 17 10 04:42 pm Link you need to go to lightroom and play with the colors density May 17 10 04:46 pm Link you want to really look at images from the time period, lenses were different back then. And they were shooting 8x10 or 4x5 cameras, which have different lens ratios And lighting was mostly from above, never from below like in your images. It changes the shape of the shadows from the lashes. ![]() ![]() May 17 10 04:51 pm Link Star wrote: I don't have lightroom but ACR should work the same right? Now when you say play with the colors density, are you talking about adjusting their luminance, saturation? I'm still a little lost on what you're suggesting. May 17 10 09:10 pm Link That field tip looks pretty wimpy. Why not a broad head? May 18 10 10:02 pm Link KMA2SQ wrote:
