| How does he do it? Hello ppl, I've been on a lot of places on the web looking on a lot of different photos. During all this time one person and his work really caught my attention, Andrzej Dragan. I just love the photos he have made, really amazing. The question is how does he do the postprocessing? I know you can buy the info from him but I cant afford spending 200eur on it. Does anyone know any trix to get something close to his work? Have look at his postprosessing work here: http://www.andrzejdragan.com/tekstyeng.html Photos are here: http://www.andrzejdragan.com/foto/nowawyrobniaeng.html Best regards, Jonas BTW Great forum! |

| Hi Jonas, Welcome to RP! ![]() I had a look at the site and I really loved what I saw!! Some of the results can be achieved with:
As for the background, it's just a matter of trying .... Filters, Clone Tool, Healing brush, Noise, Blurring, Smudging... you name it... Sorry I couldn't be more specific, but Andrzej Dragan himself says: Quote:

| Hi, After a little bit of pondering I came up with this idea : In photoshop, load pic and duplicate layer. Apply curves to the ORIGINAL (underlying) layer so that it become real dark but still clearly visible (a curve like the right part of a U should do the trick). Add a layer mask to the new (only visible) layer copy. Have the layer mask hide selection (by alt-clicking when creating mask or Layer -> Add Layer Mask -> Hide All. Now all you have to do is to paint back the original light with a soft brush. I made a little example for you. Except for the stuff I just mentioned I also reduced the saturation a little bit. That's it! http://larrahst.ub.umu.se/temp/original.jpg http://larrahst.ub.umu.se/temp/retouched.jpg |
