Glenn McCreery Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 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 a snow sculpture contest in Driggs, Idaho. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuntaColorada Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Thanx for posting, Glenn. I always look forward to the end of the month when you post your excellent images. It gives me a chance to have some fun too! Playing sometimes produces interesting and unexpected results. I selected the bison, inverted the selection and used content aware fill. I blurred the background a bit too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuntaColorada Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Visitors to Piriápolis are unaware that the coast was once home to vast herds of the Great Uruguayan Bison (Bison noseeum). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuntaColorada Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Unlike Montreal, we don't have this problem in Uruguay. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemorrell Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Pixinio.My thanks to Rennet Stowe for licensing his image of the bison under the CC 2.0 (attribution) license.. Also for the background image via Pixinio. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn McCreery Posted February 1, 2021 Author Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) Excellent choice of photos, Glenn. It reminds me of my home town. Guess . . . it's in western NY. If it reminds you of home in western N.Y., it's gotta be Buffalo. (Although technically, the sculpture is of an American Bison, which is distinct from an African or Asian Buffalo).

tom_r Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Thanks for the practice, Glenn. I went through a lot of programs and plugins here trying to de-emphasize the parking lot a little and make things more old-timey and Native American-ish. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, can you imagine the city if it were named American Bison?!? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
