This guy is one of about 8 different characters that are set up under an overpass in Emeryville, CA. I'll definitely revisit some other time because with some advance planning some pretty fun pics could be made. This opportunity presented itself because i was a distracted driver and i made a wrong turn coming home from San Francisco. ;)
Raw processing with color shift to give the blue cast.
Dodge and burn to emphasize shadows/light
Contrast masking and some adjustment levels including color burn.
A little guassian blur on the wall near the paint brush to clean up some debris??

In a hurry to get my voting done, last day today. Finding myself wondering how this was done. Maybe a cardboard that has been cut out and painted. I have to remember to come back and hopefully find info :)
I really do like it. The lights are good, on the floor and then the wall, the painter has maybe got a tad too much, maybe not. The colours are good, not too strong, I like that. The blue frame is a really good idea. Frames are hard to place in my opinion and I do like them so ... when well placed, they can ruin a shot sometimes, this one does exactly what it is meant to do.
Hope it does well.
I wonder where this was shot, there is something similar in oakland ca, I will have to come back and see where this was. It looks like som of the pants are blown out, but that could also just be white paint, I like the compsoition.
This is very unique and interesting! The figure looks painted on in photoshop yet I can see his shadow. You've certainly made me look a long time at this photo to try and figure it out. I like the spotlight effect. Well done.
