Something for the Weekend - Part 212 - Fixer Upper!

Hi

Thanks to everyone who took the time to post an image in our last archway challenge.

 

I snapped the boat below a few years ago whilst walking around Whitby, in the north east of England. It could be described as 'needing just a little attention'. Could your Photoshop skills help?

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the image,  hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right.

Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

 

 

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Dave

I love it Trevor - sailing off on its last voyage!  The lighting through the sail is spot on.

You've definitely moved locations, we don't see many flamingos here 🙂

They look like the garden gnome variety hey @Lavonne Hall?

You guys remember the pink plastic flamingo craze? Is that still a thing?

I also thought about this, but I did have little time, and would not be able to do that in the same quality. I love your edits.

You know that valve labelled 'Do not touch'? I wondered what it did...

There! Fixed it. Now you can market it as a diving adventure and earn a boatload of money.

The restoration crew now have a team leader. I hope they don't do a 'Mickey Mouse job'.   🙂
