Originally went out to this public farm thinking I'd do something with lambs, but then this calf was just too entertaining to resist showcasing him.
PP - (note tonemap settings were all the same in qtpfsgui: pregamma 0.697, mantiuk method, contrast mapping 0.1, saturation factor 1.087, detail factor 1; all were merged back into originals at 10% transparency)
background - cropped, lightened, burned/cloned a little in foreground to add more texture, added white space on bottom for credits
top right scene - tonemapped, dodged calf and lamb, shifted greens yellower to better match background field, drew hexagon around scene, colored hexagon with a bit of cyan to match sky better and burned a little shadow, cloned in some grass spots to fill in hexagon, erased everything outside of hexagon except the lamb's feet, pasted onto background as an object, resized, added shadow, darkened lamb's right knee
lower/middle right scenes - cut each from existing images as objects with a little grass under their feet, pasted onto background, resized, colored grass to better match background
star photos - cropped, tonemapped, added white space at bottom for names, pasted as objects onto background, added shadows
added line seperating star photos from rest of poster
merged all and resized, touched up color of calf and grass where needed to be more uniform, sharpened
added text and border
10 originals:
background - 0345
upper right scene - 0215
lower/middle right scenes - 0198, 0245, 0257
star photos - 0050, 0119, 0120, 0199, 0234 |
