A good smoke after sax

[Stryker]

Your C&C is highly appreciated

Sorry, not fond of that processing at all. I think this image has great potential as a low-key monochrome, but whatever filter/mask you've applied pretty much kills it IMO.

Yea the processing killed this image

Love the de-edit!

I am not fond of the square crop, myself. I wish there was a little more hand/space on the left, to not crowd the ciggy.

I do find it interesting.


Did you use the plastic wrap filter in the OP?

 

[tirediron]

1000% better; I'd play around with increased contrast and reduced exposure just to see what happens, but I like the edit!

I like this one soo much better it looks real and not "cartoony"

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

I'm with tirediron, could have just a little more gritty detail brought out.

In CS5, its Filters => Brush Strokes => Ink Outlines

! I first saw this and thought you took a picture of a cardboard hand! Very creepy, glad you fixed it.

I'll admit, I saw the title of the thread and thought it was "a good smoke after sex", lol.

I was also hoping something more sexy when i read the title, but it is a nice capture ill add. The hands i think is what makes the image

I agree with Tirediron on every point. I feel like you could up the contrast a bit and then it'd look pretty sweet!

Thanks for the C&C's ladies and gentlemen and my apologies for the misleading title. Anyway, I appreciate your response to the thread.
