Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Creative with digital images

Post by Hornet69 »

Hi all,

I have tried to be a bit creative with Photoshop (I started to make digital images this year for the first time) and wanted to show my first result. It seems it is possible to travel back in time, back to the days when my late grandfather was still young :wink:

Yup, aging photos can yield quite nice results.

Here's one I made this year at the Weeze Airshow:

Nice ones all of you, a recent one from me, it didn't look grey enough yet.

Oh and I think Marcel used poster edges of some intensity, with a combination of keeping some original colors after B/W-ing the pic. Looks good...

Grt, Mike.
There are several ways of doing this but here goes for the easiest way (in PS ofcourse):

* Duplicate your photo-layer
* Select the top-layer
* Convert the top-(color) layer to a greyscale layer (Image => Mode => Greyscale)
* Use the eraser-tool (when the top-layer still is selected) and erase all the greyscale parts that you want to appear in color. At those spots the bottom layer will now be visible and that one is still in color.
Enjoy!!
