The tower

http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/3...medcopyvh4.png

is this your photo? or did you just manip another photo to look old >_> sorry but im having a hard time beliving you took the photo with cracks and lines in your camera XDD

No, lol, I took the photo and made it look like that in Photoshop.

ok :3 personally id like to see what it looks like without that stuff.. it looks decent with the grains... but it might look great without... my only gripe is the contrast of the lighting... it might have been better if you took this near dusk or at least later in the day(early in the morning)

:-D It was taken later in the day.

see thats better :3 i can actually tell XDDD, the manipulation must have killed it for me if i thought that was muted :PP nice photo, i love the tree next to it... though because of that tree the building is very blurred (in comparison)

and I ADORE the bottom left hand corner of the tree... its amazing... the lighting is perfect XDD funny how details make you love an image more then the whole sometimes.

lol, thank you!

i like the stock photo better. The manip seems to grundgy for me. One more thing, your focus was on the trees it seemed in the photo instead of the tower. (the tower is a tad blurry)

I don't like the focus on the second one, it focuses in the foreground, but only slightly... so the tower is slightly blurred, either completely blurred or super sharp would look better imo :)

What is the photo of... ?

It's a picture of a tower.

Thanks for all the feedback!

I just took a close look at it, and the blur is terrible. I will fix it.

Well i meant actual blur done with focus on the camera, but still.. looks a bit better :) Although you missed some areas along the edges

I know, I did it fast to see how it would look. I could do it again with a wider aputare though.

That is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too blurry now.. it's kind of stupid.. and the way you've done it .. it hasn't been done well at all..

Here's a quick tip, then selecting around a certain thing like leaves which has many little parts to it and not a straight pattern it's best to use the magic wand tool, as i can see unblurry sky, and blurry leaves. Also tone down on the blur a little shit only do a small gaussian blur.

Well, I made this fast, just to see how it would look, if I really wanted to try on this, I would take the photo again, with a larger aputer. Also, the magic wand tool won't work in something like this.

to select the sky? .. yes it would.. inbetween the leaves.. then the building.. shit you could just rectangular marquee tool that...

There are diffrent color tones in the ski though.

but they're closely related and you can sellect more than one section by pressing down shift or something..

seriously you can use it..
