Greeting! I’ve been reading, and secretly trying my hand at some of the raw images shared here, and would love to see what others might do with this photo of my dog Zorro. He’s a rescue from Mexico–hence the name
I’ve made various attempts at it, and I’m pleased with this latest one using the new filmic module in DT 2.6. My intent was to bring out some of the detail in his face while reducing/softening some of the distracting background. Hope you will have some fun with it!
Nice image @mlinfoot. Going down and taking the shot from his eye level has made this photo special. Nice work! I noticed that the photo was taken more than two years ago. I hope that Zorro is doing well even now.
I used the latest Photoflow and used the Tone mapping (filmic ?) module only on Zorro. Then desaturated the rest of the image a bit, sharpened Zorro to get this 20170929_6858.jpg.pfi (41.9 KB)
Couldn’t help but to play with this beaytiful image a bit more! Added one more layer to the previous processing to increase saturation of and brighten Zorro.
You’ve really nailed the colours in his face! He’s lying beside me at the moment and as I glance from him to your photo, there’s not much difference. Thanks for this!
Photoflow w reversal TM. In a decent job the hand should go at the beginning of the layer stack, but I don’t know how to move layers in PhF and anyway everything started to crumble, I am actually unable to re-open me own pfi. But the picha ich hear
PS
Sorry, seems I lost my manners; thanks @mlinfoot for sharing with us Zorro’s portrait, please give him a hug for me. Pixels movers’ coleagues, rats off, daggers bloda spijt
the picha ich hear
