Green Tractor

As one develops glaucoma heavy dark vignetting starts and gets worse and worse until blindness. The amount of vignetting you have there is an example of advanced glaucoma.


I see...thanks for clearing that up...Not sure why I like vignetting so much.......I know many do not.

Nothing wrong with a good vignette. This just isnt one. It covers so much of the image I dont know what part of the tractor is the focus of your subject.
 
More photos please :)
 
Here is a picture of the tractor once I finalized my pre-post processing. (meaning before I add any nik filters or color adjustments and digital effects such as vignettes and such)

I like it but to me it lacks what I like to see in an HDR of this nature. Tractors I like to see textures pushed so you can see all that rusted metal color and texture. I like them to
be a bit more processed in a way that does not look natural but does keep its photo quality in tact. Thats just my choice and what I like. Tomatoes..... tomatos.....
 
We really do see things different. You cant make a silk purse from a sows ear. This pic is no silk purse. I do admire your determination to try to make it so. Im a big fan of anything John Deere but this pic just doesnt do anything for me. A better angle, some close cropping and other things could have made this a bit more artsy and interesting. But as it is, its just a pic of a junk yard all in shadows.
 
had potential but i just think way too much vignette but f thats the look you were going for to each there own... but you probably should have put more emphasis on the tractor a little less vignette over it
 
I think it's a very nice picture! Yes it's a lot of vinjetting, but it's also very effectful :-)
 
Guys I dunno what you are talking about this is probably one of the best HDR's on the site!!:oldman:

You guys are light years away from even touching my work...haters!!!!!:smileys:


Na just kidding. The vignette is very heavy. I know to some, well maybe the majority it looks wack! I just have been in that mood lately and well, when you are processing or working on an image to long sometimes its easy over done. In this case it may have been over done.

I still like it and the cool thing is I can go back and play with it more and make more changes. The beauty of the digital age.....

I went back and started over and this time a different outcome......

I know it's a junk yard, but you could have moved those 3 skids, and cleaned out the bucket.
