I like the football ones a lot and #4 is my favorite. Great job!

[JesusNinja]

thanks mann.

[Gary McDuffie]

I like #1, but would try to pull just a little bit more light out of the shaded area mid body on the two players.

[EnglishBob]

It works well for the sports ones for me, not such a fan of the process on the other ones. Nice work.

[MikeFairbanks]

I like the first one a lot. Super cool HDR color splash. Well-done.

[JesusNinja]

i like the idea of this one, but:

- despite the small image size, i still can see some color spill. more accuracy and time will yield a better overall image. be patient.
- you missed a spot (big one actually), take a look between the left player's hands
-lastly, try it with all desaturated with exception to the player holding the ball.

also, pic 3 looks good to me.


my regards,:D

love the 1st one how did you do it what was your software and work flow.

[fotojoem]

I second that question. These are very nice! I would love to know the PP as well because I shoot a ton of sports.

Thanks in advance,
Joe

haha. wow asay82 you are right i did. i was at #12's house(guy in the fb picture) showing him what i could do with the pictures and totally missed that spot lol. didnt even notice it.

I used Adobe Camera Raw on the JPEG file and made 4 exposures besides the main picture, a +1,+2,-1,-2. Put them all together in Photomatix. Saved that image and opened it in Photoshop CS4. Then i used Nik Software's Color Efex Pro 3.0 plugin to change the contrast of the image.

and again thanks guys.

[JesusNinja]

the football pictures are going into a sideshow for the team so i had to go back and fix it as soon as you pointed that out. here is the same image remade with the suggestions. one in full color and one with just #12.if you have any more suggestions just fill me on please!

looks much better now. i like them both.
nicely done :0

The first five are all too intense, but it works for that last one with the selective color. I like the last one a lot.

[ETERNAL]

AMAZING. I love the last edit with just #12 in color. I think maybe the ball carrier with the field in color might be cool. Kind of show him connected to the field type of thing.

[dinvab]

Like them all. #3 is my fav tho.

[JesusNinja]

thanks guys. again. lol

[Lantz]

Very nice JesusNinja love the artistic look to these!

I might be a little bias since I too am in Alabama, just south of Huntsville.

[Stephanie Miller]
