mutley 4,488 Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Gotta hand it to you Steve, these are just stunning.

ddavid 149 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I guess if you can't cut the grass, the best thing is to edit the bl**dy stuff out, eh?!? Nice work - as ever - and really a pleasure to see - and ponder........ :dance: Thanks for sharing - keep popping by, it is appreciated. :biggrin: Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
needles 1,010 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 After seeing these two :biggrin: 's I'm giving up. I just can't compete with shots like these. I will however retract my statement when I've got more CS3 practice under my wings. Excellent and awe inspiring. Well done. :dance: Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 After seeing these two :great: 's I'm giving up. I just can't compete with shots like these.I will however retract my statement when I've got more CS3 practice under my wings. Excellent and awe inspiring. Well done. Needles, i wholly forbid anything of the kind. If I did that when in your position which, as it happens was only around 12-15 months ago... with the edit below, i'd have never produced what i posted the other day!! I say get stuck in, its the only way you'll ever benefit. And from practice, comes perfection....or something like that as, looking at the pic below you can clearly see i'm still in need of much practice to become as good as our man Steve here!! whats wrong with it you ask.....well, lighting and shadows are bad, the feathered prop has really jaggy edges, there's little detail or interest other than the B17, the smoke trails are just naff (putting it politely!), the baackground probably wasn't the best of choices........the list goes on!

mutley 4,488 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Simi, I would be happy to get that result you had 12 months ago! It is very time consuming but very satisfying :great: Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
reef 3 Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hey guys. Really appreciate your kind feedback, happy you enjoyed taking a look. Dai, i do have a shot in mind that would heavily feature grass but not got my head around it yet :great: Needles the worst thing you can do is not post your shots. Feedback from people is by far the best way to learn and i would have got nowhere without it. As long as you can take a few negative comments about your shots and put them right in the next anyone can do it. Editing to me is learning lots of small skills and bringing them all together to form a shot. The shot may look complex but is simply broken down into lots of smaller steps. Also looking at photos of the real thing will always help. Cheers... steve Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I can only agree with everybody else... These shots are mindblowing....... Link to post Share on other sites
