Thika On the Fence - another try at creative editing.

[Trever1t]

An editing technique I have been playing with using only LR4. It is a time consuming method but hopefully I'm getting closer to the effect I want; a rich warm scene and a subject that pops and stands out from that background.

I think you achieved your goal!

Nice! But the fence tilt, and her tilt... kind of throw it off for me! But as far as the edit goes... well done!

the fence is really tilted, it's on a slope. Yes I played on that a little

I could tell!

Love the lighting, exposure and model. The pose and angle? Sorry... not so much. It looks too forced to me.

The angle was reduced, meaning I reduced the amount of slope, is that the issue? Would she look better standing more vertical? I did tilt it to place her more diagonally, perhaps that in error?

Still like it!

 

[Trever1t]

Me too! Not every image need be a natural pose or setting.

did you paint warm background and leave te subject untouched, I saw this method used on youtube, great shot, although her left arm seems really blue, almost dead.

 

[Trever1t]

Yes and no, I painted both, different adjustments obviously. Here's one last one...She's warmer here.
