Holiday poster

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Series of pix's taken at The Singapore Bird Park using 18-70 Nikkor using Fine jpg. Finished poster is 70x55cm framed. The bright background was used so each pix had its own space and when view from a distance each frame stands out. {My choice of background was a bit bright, but as a poster ok

Great montage. I'm not exactly a fan of the laisse faire organisation, I'd prefer a bit of structure myself - and I think it's lacking a title. But the individual images are superb!

I really like this big pix,

I like how they are not all the same size and some blend in with others.

Well done.

How do you do this ? In PS ? or something else.
Could you give us a few pointers where to start if PS.

Thanks,

Mic. :wink:

Simply done, open file and create new and set your finished size, open gradient tool and colour new page, run tool diagonal for a different look, open each image and crop as required then move each image one at a time onto new page and resize each to fit on new page. By cropping and resizing you can make all different shapes and sizes.

The poster was created in PSCS but easy done in other versions

Cheers
