Digital Imaging

Thank God for Photoshop. Now anything can be done with photography. From as little as removing dust and scratches all the way to transporting you to a land of fantasy. Some much power for the little people.

For some reason, this picture frightens people. What I was really trying to accomplish with this photograph was the goal of matching skin tone. What had to be done to this photo for it to work was to match my original skin tone with the skin tone of the body building. I also wanted a picture that had a strong contrast from my own skin tone. I think this is the best matching that I've ever done. The key is using curves. I'll let you figure it out from there.

For this picture, a friend of mine and myself, stood 3 hours in line to get our pictures taken with the one and only Spice Girls. Scary Spice pinched my butt. Actually I stole the Spice photo off their website. Pictures of me and my friend were taken with a digital camera (Olympus). We had to take several pictures to insure that we were looking in the right direction. Adobe Photoshop was used to place us in the picture. My friend was a straight placement. I, on the other hand, had to slip myself between the two Mel's. Part of my image was erased in order to accomodate Sporty's right arm.
