My son at the races - newbie

I was looking for the effect of of his GF like ghosted in the background. I'm sure if and when I can do photoshop. I could take off her clothing and leave just her head in the background.

Alright so I hope you don't mind that I took a shot at it. It's amazing how a far a little bit of proper post-process goes.

Broke it down into the three stages here:

Original Image-

HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'image/png'

After a couple of CS4 adjustment layers, and the cloning complete -

HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'image/png'

Quick pass through Lightroom CS3 to get rid of some of the noise created by correcting the exposure -

HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'image/png'

Again I hope it was ok that I did some process work on this image, I think you had a neat idea and I realize how hard it can be to achieve without certain knowledge of the software.

Enjoy

Your very welcome, I'm sorry I couldn't do more as the original exposure was extremely blown out, but I think i understood what you were going for!
