WOW you have all been sooooooo busy, been really mad today as the broadband connection was disconnected by the phone company...ALL DAY!!!

Peter...Love all of these...very nice effects...It has been said that we will not have a white one this year....hope they are wrong!!!

Stosh...lovely ...you have really popped the colors and the frame looks great..

Craig...Love the colors on the snowy trees...it worked really well...and i have been nattering Peter too...for a tute!!!

Swampy...This is a great look you have devised...really nice!!!

Pavel...Fab...the pic is great....In actual fact the pic you painted was taken with my first digital camera...a sony cybershot just 2 mpx...it really does take lovely scenic shots but not so good people ones...Some of them were taken with my Canon A300 powershot 3.6 mpx.....this is why i am waiting for the snow...to see waht the Rebel can do???? What camera did you get???

Well, I almost got it... Actually I saw that your cyclamen photos @ innograpx were taken by the Rebel (according to metadata), so I assumed these pics were taken by the same camera.
I have Panasonic FZ30, the camera has a few nice features, not to happy about the noise, though.

One more rendition.

That is really good Pavel, your style suits the photo so well...
I am a little confusing...using 3 cameras (could be more if i get the film ones on the go!!!) Only had the Rebel just over 2 months....the cyclamen shots i did in the last two weeks...so you were correct!!
Sorry about the noise...why does it have that??? With new cameras i think it takes a while to get close to perfection...if we ever do???

Here are two more from me..

The one looking out to sea...I did aniso and curves and the snowy trees ink outlines..both framed with an action in Photoshop...

Threw everything at it (vector simplication, Impressionist, Paint Engine, lots of things) to get the result. Not as happy as I wanted it to be, but the clicks had to stop somewhere.

Here's the full, high quality version (attached is a 52% quality crop).

Used an action I found on this site to turn it into a painting, then changed the colors to give it more of an evening style. Not totally satisfied with it, but I only spent a couple of minutes on it.

Mr Who, very nice posting.
I sort of used the idea.

Patricia, I'm sure that once you get used to Rebel you won't have a reason to get confused as you would not use other cameras. Color noise for Panasonic is sort of known problem, it gets fairly noticeable at high ISO settings. Apart from that it is a very good camera.

Like it Mr. Who. What action did you use?

Kraellin · #25 12-06-2006, 10:41 PM

peter,

well, you dont have to wear a tie. i just want a more precise, step by step of what you're doing. you did mention somewhere the rough steps and if it's something you'd rather keep proprietary, that's fine also. but laziness or 'i dont know how' or 'i'm not very good at that' will not be allowed as excuses

Kraellin · #26 12-06-2006, 10:43 PM

thanks, patricia

and lasa, i like that sparkly one.

and pavel, very nice

Sorry about the late reply, I watched a movie (12 monkeys, pretty good) and then went to work. The action itself is called Amateur Painter, it comes in a pack you get from here You have to pay for it (it comes with more actions, and there are some free ones), but considering all that you get I think it's worth it. Glad you liked it

patriciakay · #28 12-07-2006, 03:03 AM

Lyle...Think you stopped clicking at the right time.....it tuned out great!!!

MrWho...Really like the effect your action gave the photo...

Pavel....This is a nice moody one....would look great poster size!!!
If the photos you have posted here are from your Panosonic then indeed it takes very nice shots...I always have a camera with me....but when going into Stockholm shopping alone it will be a small one...as in this day and age sadly...one could get mugged!!!!

Craig...You are welcome and if you want to play with any in FF...please do!!!

Patricia....

Craig, thank you.

Palms, didn't pay close attention to the rendition first time around, now I have the same feeling, the more I look at it, the more I like the pic. Looks sort of threatening, though, probably dark trees...

Pavel

P.S. Is that AHB?
