Hi all

This was a quick shot of herself in her garden in Valencia Spain, although its had a few spins through PS obviously.

Im only new to PS so don't be too hard on me..
This is a result of a couple of tutorials I followed so I hope you like it.

what do you think guys and girls??

Thanks all

regards
John

I like the picture quality and exposure. The composition is nice, but I would pass on the effects on the side... they detract from the beauty of your lady. :)

yeah the bits at the sides got to me after a while too. but as i say it was a tutorial thing so I went ahead with it.

Thanks jerry

this is a really nice shot. i actually like the effects on the side. some of the colors on the side match the colors in the picture.

Yay pieinyourgilles

someone has realised the sides match the photo.

its a technique where you use the colours of the photo for the backround.

It works ok for this photo, but i think it would work better with different photos.

thanks for the comments so for guys and girls

regards
John
