Free Photo Retouching

[Robin Usagani]

The guy wants to retouch photos, so let him. Why do people always give somone a hard time? Same thing with my edit thread. Some people here are just so darn negative. It is not like he is asking money for it.

Take a look at their work. For some reason, the harshest criticisms often come from those who are least qualified to give it.

Philip, you might get more constructive responses on a forum such as Model Mayhem, where you're likely to find more experienced retouchers.

I have already signed up there, but waiting to be approved, though thanks anyway
However, as I have said several times, I'm not looking for feedback, but for photographers who's pictures I can edit!

Also, I completely agree that you often see retouches far far more manipulated than what I have showed here.

Well I have to admit it wasn't exactly the most positive first-impression I have gotten. The thread is taking a turn for the better though

I don't mind harsh criticism at all, if it is constructive A lot (not all) of what I have gotten in this thread so far has, in my opinion, not been very much of the sort. Especially considering I never asked for it in the first place, but for photographs to edit Which, no matter what some here might say, when looking at what some other people are producing, I do think I am more than qualified to do considering it's free work.

That's why I referred you to MM. There are tons of high-res images available there for practice.

True, but you still want to get a permission first. YOu cant just copy and paste someone's work, edit it and post it on your website.

If you knew about MM, you would know that they have a forum especially for photographers to post images for others to edit and use in portfolios.

I have to check it out then. Last time I went there.. it felt like I was going to a porn site.

 

[Zeplin]

Peano, thanks! I had missed that sub-forum! I'll check it out

And Schwettylens... holy yikes... I'm sure there are very nice people on this forum, but I'm seeing nasty things in my first few days here :-/

Found a nice one to work on Took around 1½ hours... might change some details tomorrow, dunno yet :S

Would still be happy if anyone here had any photo's though!

I know something went wrong with her eyes... not exactly sure what it was, and in the end couldn't be bothered more (it's almost 4am in Denmark) Though I don't get what you're talking about with the pupils o0 Pretty much the exact same size, and pretty much haven't been touched o0

This is hilarious.

What a nice community you have here guys >_> Who new 14 year old trolls also visited photography forums!

I'm giving him a CC of his edit. Here we go again.

Zeplin.. this last edit you did, I dont know if you retouched someone elses edit or what but those eyes look like they have been dialated. You should post the before photo. Kinda useless with just the result. But I can tell you right now, there is really somethin wrong with the edit.
