Glenn McCreery Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 There are no rules as to how you apply your post processing to this image; but, please let us know what you have done so we can all learn. If you would like to post a candidate image next week, please ensure it is of sufficiently high resolution for manipulation by the participants (3000px on the long side, 300dpi for example). Most of all, let's have fun while we are learning or demonstrating how we use our post-processing software, imaginations and interpretations. The photo is of observers at the Old Faithful Lodge watching Old Faithful geyser erupt. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn McCreery Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 I like that Film Noir rendition. It could be a photo from the 50's, except for the smart phones! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemorrell Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I hope no-one is offended by this version. If so, I apologize in advance. It's just the first thought that came into my head. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuntaColorada Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Well, if it's gonna erupt, it might as well really ERUPT. I used a cloud from one of my photos. Such a large eruption needed a shadow so I used a curves adjustment regionally. A bit of a vignette and border seemed to be called for. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_r Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 As usual for me, a mixture of stuff: Dynamic Auto Painter template, SNS-HDR, Topaz Simplify, color adjustments in Luminar and PS, and a frame from Smart Photo Editor. Thanks for posting, Glenn! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuntaColorada Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Last one. Gysers are interesting; but if you really want to draw crowds...GIANT CORGI WRESTLING. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leslie Reid Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 —Where clouds come from— In Photoshop: Selected the geyser with the lasso tool and used the refine edge brush to fine-tune the edge. Flipped it and enlarged it.Selected the left part of the clouds disappearing behind the lodge, enlarged and flipped them; then cloned out the originals.Ad libbed more clouds (and the missing part of the borrowed one) using the clone tool. In Lightroom: Added some shading to the geyser and clouds with the adjustment brushAdded graduated filter to reduce foreground exposure and highlightsUsed an adjustment brush to reduce clarity in the geyser and clouds 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaellinder Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Great selection, Glenn . . . I was so inspired that I created 3 versions 2 days ago. Damned if I can remember at this time the steps I took. Anyways, here comes the first. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_r Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 The 2nd-- I'm stealing Michael's title nomenclature plus his experimentation in colors! :) Here's a Dynamic Auto Painter template version (Aquarelle Noveau) plus a few color adjustments in PS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
