Crap or Crapola?

Hi all,

This is my first try at not only selective colouring but also um.... well... other stuff (don't ask me what I did because I really don't know - I just pressed some buttons haha).

Does this even work (i.e. crapola) or is it just plain old run of the mill crap? lol.

Thanks for looking anyway

It is quite a striking image and definitely not crap!

Wow, thanks Ian. I quite liked it but wasn't sure if it would be everyone's cup of tea...

its different and unique! i hope your enjoying yourself, experimenting is the best way to learn!

i like it!

Well, if the words go crap, crapola and crapless, this is definately in the crapless class. Well done whatever you did. The eye really draws me in.

Thanks Marty... I like how the eye is so dark - a friend of mine suggested that I lighten it up a touch but I think I will leave it as is.

From memory I added some sort of noise filter and then solarize?

yeah, looks solarized.. I'm not a big fan of selective coloring but I think if you're having fun and you like what you've done then that is the most important part. If you're looking to sell something, then I would care what others thought. Otherwise keep having fun and learning.
