I just started to play around with this editing software, and just grabbed a random image and started playing with it. What do you think? This is my first try



Photoscape is what I used, I touched up the Shapeness,and color hue only a little bit...I didn't wanna go crazy.

Here is the original



Go ahead and be blunt, I'd rather have the truth. I am just doing this for fun, I only have a Cannon ISX10is Camera so nothing super fancy or anything.

 

Looks good......kinda anoying to look at the pic when its sideways tho..lol

 

Looks like stewie vador on the left, lol!

Touch up looks great. Cars no eyesore either!

 

Good colors and nice tweaks, but the picture is just too slanted IMO and makes it a distraction.

 

Yeah I'm bored and working on a better picture now!

 

Here's a better one I just did



Original

 

looks good man, nice ride

 

The car looks good.
The pic quality is crap.
The editing software is weaksauce.

 

Care to explain?

 

Thank you!

 

x2 - if you're looking for a simple editor at least get something like lightroom, if you're looking for something more advanced pickup photoshop.

 

take a better picture to begin with, then you dont have to touch up everything.

 

x1,000,000. Try using a tripod, and messing around with the settings on your camera. I took these unedited shots with the older version of your camera - Canon Powershot S5 IS:

For whatever reason, the two pics you posted look like they are cell phone quality.

 

a good camera can do wonders

 

1st shot is a great location but don't try the crazy magazine cover angle shots. It works on the cover of a mag when its a rolling shot with movement.. anywhere else its just annoying. Keep the horizon level. Another thing to look out for is the background and foreground.. in the first shot the foreground with the gravel and grass is distracting from the graffiti and the car.

2nd shot is just OK. If the camera was on the tripod it would be sharper there is motion blur in it. location is not bad though. Try different angles.. lay on the ground.. stand on a ladder. Don't be afraid to crop the shot and try all kinds of stuff when processing... extreme to mild.

here is a quick edit I did with both shots.. (I hope you don't mind.) It will really bring the points home.

the first shot with no extreme tilt and cropped.


a quickie done with Photoshop CS2. Just playing with color Curves layeres on each other and cropping.




For sure though better software would help!!! I use either GIMP or photoshop CS2 (yeah its old but it works!) A better camera will help with image quality but I'm thinking the photo software is causing a good deal of the grainy look to these shots more than the camera so I'd not get a new one now. A lot can be overcome with a good eye and solid camera practices. Hope this helps!

 

She looks like she dont take no S^*t off nobody. Looks good bro.

 

Decrease your shutter speed for the night shot, and take it from a tripod. Also it seems like you're ISO might be too high, hence the grain.

For the day time shot shoot on A mode, and lower your aperature. Those simple adjustments should help. Also once you get a more advanced tool like PS, shoot in RAW

 

I tried again last night, the last pictures were taken with Auto mode this time it was all Manual

 

Bump!!

 

first pic is sick. great angle. but the colors are off? theres a green hue all over the wall. something is wrong with your settings try messing with the iso and settings.try a lil editing to get the hue a bit warmer...sorry to high jack, but heres a quick edit to show you what i meant. 2nd pic is perfect.


and nice looking car you got there
