Photo manipulation contest!

I appreciate you shal.

 

Let me give you all a tip that may improve the quality almost any picture you're editing. Whenever possible, try to edit the pic's major areas like buildings, sky, ground or just the pic's main target and then the back/foreground in separate layers or selections or what ever suits your program. In that way you have the maximum possible influence to what the outcome will be.

 

I'm trying to tell this as constructive feedback and to encourage you to play with different techniques and settings and not as an offence..

 

I'm also putting a deadline. It will come after 3 weeks and before that, there's no limitations to editing or even changing your picture. Updates are to be made to your current participating post(unless you're new participant) and any edit or new participation made after 18.6 1:57am will not be tolerated/accepted. Updating this to the first post also.

Please pardon me, decal_mirror, I've been so busy these days and I cannot reply you until today (1st june, 23:31, sad but true XD)... A lot of thanks for your advice :smile: . It's always nice to read some recommendations and tips from experienced people. I'm a newbie editing pictures, I started to use Photoshop in april, and as you can see, I'm not too good using it.

I'll take more photos for deadline (If I can!)

I didn't have any definitive outline for the building though. I did make the changes on separate layers (to some extent). If I had a better building picture I'd use it. I'll find one.

Ok, here's my pictures. I took original photo in Estonia's capital city(dunno what is it in English). The colors are reduced in both, though the effect is more visible in the original as it's wasn't originally so grey. That's because Photobucket doesn't allow me update larger pics than 1Mt.

Damn I had almost forgotten this contest. The deadline was yesterday. Still.. there are so few participants so are you willing that I move the deadline further again or do you want me to put up the voting thread up right now? Or do you even want that as voting might be kinda pointless with so few participant?
