Hi,
Thanks to all who took part in our last, 'Prickly Issue', challenge. We had a great range of entries with both still images and animations.
'Time and tide wait for no man', says the old proverb. So for this week, I bring you a picture of Staithes, a lovely village on the North Yorkshire coast of England. Can you show us what it might look like when the tide retreats?
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 humor 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 starter 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

Yes. That was me being just plain lazy. 😞
In case anyone doesn't know, the trick is to look for 'wake with black background' and either knock out the black, or what I usually do, is set to Lighten. Screen is too much and looks nasty.
Here you go. You've shamed me into fixing the wake, at least, but the bigger problem is that it's a model boat and it looks like it. I am not entirely sure why that is. I 'Think' it might be that the photograph was taken from a low angle, and the boat from a higher angle. We can see too much of the deck so the boat's perspective does not match the scene's. It's amazing what our brains pick up on. Oh well. It's a lesson learned for the next time.
I love this Rosa. The fish fits the scene way better than it ought to being more suited to a corel reef somewhere very much warmer than North Yorkshire. The little guy looks like it is talking to the camera, so I had to give it a speech bubble. What else might it be saying? (I am totally in love with that Dynamic Text button)
