OPINIONS

[umphotography]

playing with this technique,, yes or no ??

[FlyingPhotog]

Considering the subject, yes, I think it works nicely...

[acchildress]

Yes, but only occasionally.

[Zazoh]

My test for these is to ask would the image stand on its own without processing, looks like it might, but would have loved to see the eyes.

[Zapins]

I vote no. Makes the child look creepy.

[Kauaicrazed]

It looks too cartoonish for me.

[KatiaShermanPhotography]

i would say no...when you do that his face became "dirty" (for the lack of better word) - its just too much for my taste

[milorad]

consider fading some of the effect between this, and the normal exposure on the kid's face only.... to reduce the effect on the skin.

otherwise it's really kind of interesting, in a "my momma think's it's special" kind of way.

[azpix]

not a fan.
whats the original look like?

[Bluemist]

I vote NO! Looks garish....I'd like to see the original too

[umphotography]

thanks folks. i didnt really pay attention to the skin.so do you think going into photoshop and trying to blend in some of the original skin tone would help. not sure how to do that to make it come out ok.

[mamabravo]

it's good with textured stuff like buildings ect but not for people


sorry

[milorad]

try putting the original on the edit, then fading it until the face looks less edited, but still shows the added contrast.

then just use a fuzzy brush and erase everything except what you want to keep.

[Meeshee]

I would say no, but interesting to see.

[Phil.hearing]

no doesnt look real
