Something for the Weekend - Part 212 - Fixer Upper!

[davescm]

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!

Welcome to SFTW Lut. We'll pass that to the boat painters and ask them to match it 🙂

An impressionist view of the scene.  Claude Monet eat your heart out.

I'm wondering if there would issues working as a graphic artist when your name is Lut.  I guess that would depend on whether going to make lame jokes about look up tables?  I'll get my coat. 😞

[Lut @ HOTEL KONFETTI]

LOL - yes I've heard that joke before (and as a graphic geek I think it's very funny) ... In Belgium (home) I'm just Lut, but amongst fellow creative people I'm a Look Up Table 🙂

The ship looks like it does not fit to a rusty old pier!

Tx is always @davescm.

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

Steamboat Willie has been around for a while guys.

My ex and I took two of our nieces to Disney many years ago.  The young one (about 7) got scared and cried her eyes out in Pirates of the Caribbean.  My other mememories of that trip are the same niece decided to enjoy a strawberry milkshake for a second time, but in the other direction, and a HUGE man with a gun, knocking on the hotel door to tell us we'd left the key in the lock.  😞

Oh dear. I promise that Mickey is not a gun toter @Trevor.Dennis

The genius of Walt Disney lives in all our hearts. Did you visit the Disney Presents attraction? How insane is his multi-plane camera? Well ahead of its time, imho!

Fascinating, especially when you think how basic so many modern animations can be
