Post-processing: How is this done?

[dhaval]

I just loved the editing this guy has done over here: Before & After on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

Any idea how he has achieved this?

Thanks!

Looks like it's HDR or Tone Mapping of some sort...

At least you could get a similar effect with HDR / Tone Mapping

Looks like an underexposed image that was brightened and 'dodged'.

All local adjustments: dodge, burn, or a local selection and an exposure adjustment layer, lens blur filter.

Adobe Lightroom / Photoshop with OnOne Phototools is all you need for post processing.

for sure selective blur. He probably invert select a circle in the middle and blur it. Then layer adjustment

Thanks guys! So he has burnt the pic where the model is. Selectively blurred the rest of the pic. I'm still not sure what he did to the part of the road near the bottom....

Thanks again!

if you look at it carefully, you have an oval around the person that is not blurred.
