Mykonos?

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.

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.

1 & 2 are great - the colour in the sky and the lines make them wonderful images.

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

Wow!

Inspired by your recent posts! They are all superb.

This series grabbed me as it's a great study of the high key.

Were these exposed as high key images or done in post? How do you get those tones of the sky? The blues are mesmerising!

Also, I thought the #3 of the crucifiction series was one of the best photos I have seen in this forum this year! How did you get the viewpoint on that? Ladder??? :wink:

Hi the images were caught notmal exposure but in photoshop decided to high key them so they look somewhat like a subconscious vision to make it look more nostalgic of a dream.
in photoshop i make a gradient mask in a new duplicated(background layer) i choose a gradient in this case purple(pinkish) to white and then set the inking controls in hte layer box to screen to screen the colour over the image

with the blues i force the colour change by using hue and saturation choosing the blue tones and changing hte hue to a purple(RGB slider move red slider). I also desaturate the blue channel as well. This is done after the gradient mask procedure.

thankyou for all the comments and interest.
