Post Processing Challenge June 12, 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.

 

As seen at one of the Temiskaming Kennel Club's dog shows last decade.

Curves adjustment and a bit of the blue channel to darken the grass.

Playing with multiple duplicate cropped images and then transforming to polar coordinates in Photoshop CC.

Oops, forgot to add steps. Decided I wanted to make doggie into a “lion.” Screen shot online of mane and tail which I turned into PNG files. Applied those to doggie as overlays adjusting as needed. Cut out doggie using Topaz Mask AI. Downloaded a free jungle-ish file. Dropped doggie onto his hill. Added a sky to replace the whiteout one using Luminar AI and fiddled with its placement and relighting. Added grain to give everything a similar look. Possible titles: Born Free or Doggie Dreaming.

 

First I cropped the image and cloned out the leash and some background shadows. Then converted to B&W, followed by using split tone to to give it a sepia look, finally added some vignette.
