A tiny selection of the behind the scenes stuff. Thanks once again to the two gents for coming out with me and helping me out. Very much appreciated! I really am incredibly thankful of everyone who's helped me so so much throughout this recovery period. Unfortunately, it's not over though so I'll still be relying on them all. Gotta find a way to pay everyone back for their help though once I'm better! Maybe organise a BBQ or something of this sort :-)SKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16751384387503226620noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1560646945375277617.post-52319394524969950922009-12-19T02:37:00.002+00:002009-12-19T02:48:31.759+00:00bokehlicious textures for everyoneHere are some full resolution bokeh light textures which you can all use.<br /><br />If you dont know how to use a texture, just google "texture use tutorial" and it'll come up with tons of tutorials.<br /><br />Full Sized links are under each image so click the links under the pics!<br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4006/4196570960_ee13038a94.jpg"><img style="display:block;

I first took it into photoshop as a RAW file and worked on things like white balance and exposure, highlights, lights, darks, and shadows. I then moved the pic from camera raw to photoshop's main part. Here, first flipped the image then I cloned the beard all the way up properly so it covered my whole jaw entirely. I then changed the colour of the hat by selecting only the hat and the area around it on a duplicate layer then going to "replace colour". Because I hadn't selected around the hat only, I had to then create a mask and paint back in the parts of my head and hair I needed. I then did the same for the jacket making it a little darker. Then I added a "painting texture" and set it to "multiply" as the blending mode and made a mask painting back in my own body so the texture remained only behind me. Then I messed further with curves, gradients, colour overlays and that sort of thing to get the tones exactly as they appear in the pic. I then applied a slight grunge texture on about 20-30% opacity. And lastly I applied a very small vignette and voila. <br /><br />That's the most photoshop I've done on a single image in ages but I dont mind it. I like photoshop so its cool :)SKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16751384387503226620noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1560646945375277617.post-47353806065434346442009-09-16T17:32:00.005+01:002009-09-16T17:39:52.499+01:00How to protect your camera from rainAfter I posted the photo entitled <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/sevgik/3923573171/">ocean dreams</a>, I said that I would show those who were wondering how to protect their cams from the rain, how I did it.<br /><br />Here's how:<br /><br />What I did was wrap my camera up in a plastic bag which was kinda thin and I made sure it's loose enough to cover the whole cam but also leave the lens area open when I needed it to. I wrapped it round the tripod base thingy too so when I popped the tripod thingy into it's slot with the camera on it, it also secured the plastic bag on the cam so made sure it wouldn't fly off. I then put my lil wireless remote in a zip-lock bag which I folded and sellotaped together so it still worked and wasn't in a big bag. I've killed my remote before by drowning it so was prepared this time round. Anyway, then I made my sister in law hold an umbrella over the camera for extra security. Had she not been there, I would have also put a towel over it leaving the front open for the lens. <br /><br />and here's the visual aids for the above description (click for larger):<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgp5OBLv_blCXJ4bDQ-MMOrvZV-aY_9jCMRqGK9E_HVQJIQ4FZ_IpClyBTDYVyFlyZRonxnhZeeY-zyederu6yeX7niUWLdhGVebMGJlRpgcHqcQSNqMIzYh-_XsclDaycXQ4hqhoQVn6kr/s1600-h/16092009842s.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgp5OBLv_blCXJ4bDQ-MMOrvZV-aY_9jCMRqGK9E_HVQJIQ4FZ_IpClyBTDYVyFlyZRonxnhZeeY-zyederu6yeX7niUWLdhGVebMGJlRpgcHqcQSNqMIzYh-_XsclDaycXQ4hqhoQVn6kr/s400/16092009842s.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382105065209455810" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwAwnr1KXGP5Hqahlh4O1TGzkmU4Vt-5Rkjo1nuZdNgmCjxOMo-h_UDxpmso6b1c4fcVNnNvmugHSt9yvVa4pg_TyN8rpar9Cz7sYSHoAf3DuHSQIb32fXSSZwiwuZ2s25CU7ATi54SYeK/s1600-h/16092009843s.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwAwnr1KXGP5Hqahlh4O1TGzkmU4Vt-5Rkjo1nuZdNgmCjxOMo-h_UDxpmso6b1c4fcVNnNvmugHSt9yvVa4pg_TyN8rpar9Cz7sYSHoAf3DuHSQIb32fXSSZwiwuZ2s25CU7ATi54SYeK/s400/16092009843s.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382105057271025250" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT2uAWkUa9XwuBIe8T8suPzG43zLqq77dFxlLyX1ueAld7uyzFe_V4vjGFL-vLL-W4a1NlPAWErshJeIhSIqcRZzoLDx5-Y_VvoWghWBrJsRiitn-qfhynDx0M5aZ6zkrncVt37tM10V8v/s1600-h/16092009844s.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT2uAWkUa9XwuBIe8T8suPzG43zLqq77dFxlLyX1ueAld7uyzFe_V4vjGFL-vLL-W4a1NlPAWErshJeIhSIqcRZzoLDx5-Y_VvoWghWBrJsRiitn-qfhynDx0M5aZ6zkrncVt37tM10V8v/s400/16092009844s.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382105053069298578" /></a>SKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16751384387503226620noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1560646945375277617.post-40753799165371097182009-09-08T23:06:00.002+01:002009-09-08T23:24:09.806+01:00Artist Feature: TamishirI joined flickr.com back in Feb 2007 and one of the first people I discovered on there whose work I fell in love with was <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/">Amir aka Tamishir</a>. He is from one of the most beautiful countries in the world but also a country which heavily restricts artistic freedoms that are so easily enjoyable elsewhere. Yet Amir creates brilliant masterpieces all of the time. His photos have elements of surrealism to them while also being real. He often crosses gender roles and challenges what is/isn't acceptable in this regard. He also includes cultural elements in his photos through things such as props, text, ideas etc. and this only adds to how much I enjoy them. In the time I've been watching his work, he has consistently grown while keeping those parts of his photos which distinguish his images as his own.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2335879988/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2091/2335879988_3467dd4958.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2335879988/">...</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tamishir/">Tamishir</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/452082100/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/253/452082100_856adfad7d.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/452082100/">...</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tamishir/">Tamishir</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2096348172/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2121/2096348172_b366f240b2.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2096348172/">...</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tamishir/">Tamishir</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2259972249/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2217/2259972249_aeda23f403.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2259972249/">...</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tamishir/">Tamishir</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2454503916/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2095/2454503916_9265f143a8.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2454503916/">...</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tamishir/">Tamishir</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2058152046/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2204/2058152046_3595245297.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2058152046/">...</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tamishir/">Tamishir</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2383208470/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3051/2383208470_e476f50cba.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/2383208470/">...</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tamishir/">Tamishir</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br />Check him out: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tamishir/SKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16751384387503226620noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1560646945375277617.post-51029046401885309622009-09-02T04:21:00.007+01:002009-09-02T18:33:53.039+01:00Artist Focus: Allyson Kalie GarrettI want to start something on my blog where I showcase artists once a week who I think are simply amazing in what they do. I dont think I'll limit it to just photography but it will probably mostly be in that realm.<br /><br />The first person I want to show you all is <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/">Allyson Kalie</a> who I discovered through the world of Flickr. At a mere 18 years of age, she already has a bigger understanding of "photography" than most I know. Her use of light is what made me fall in love with her work and that love and appreciation has only grown stronger so here she is.<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3803189972/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2502/3803189972_ab07839428.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3803189972/"></a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/kaliegarrett/">Allyson Kalie</a>.</span></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3751029900/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3471/3751029900_3541158369.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3751029900/">day three hundred and sixty two.</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/kaliegarrett/">Allyson Kalie</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3668515831/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3660/3668515831_8830d99e8b.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3668515831/">day three hundred and thirty seven.</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/kaliegarrett/">Allyson Kalie</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3612494824/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3610/3612494824_be36bbca2b.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3612494824/">day three hundred and eighteen.</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/kaliegarrett/">Allyson Kalie</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3571629160/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3305/3571629160_df736baa25.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3571629160/">day three hundred and seven.</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/kaliegarrett/">Allyson Kalie</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3565574584/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3638/3565574584_89f7b3c89e.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaliegarrett/3565574584/"></a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/kaliegarrett/">Allyson Kalie</a>.</span></div><p></p><br /><br />thats only from the first 10 pages of her stream and if you click those photos, you will see they usually have a whole bunch more under them!

She was criticised because people felt she was portraying a mans view of women (pretty face, nice body, nude work) but she proved this all wrong when she also documented herself deteriorating because of cancer.<br /><br />What a lot of people seem to think about feminists is that they are butch women with hairy underarms and they burn bras.. oh and they're lesbians. It's the stupidest thing ever. If that were the case, then it would also be correct that ALL men are only out for sex, they all beat women and they are all drunkard pieces of shit. Sure, there are feminists who have burnt bras and do have hairy underarms and whatever but feminism is an ideology - a way of life. It is not in the way a person looks but rather the way a person IS and what they believe. Feminism is about equality - equality between women and equality with men. On any given day, I can look like either of these images but the person I am doesn't change with that. The beliefs I hold don't change with that.<br /><br />And for the record, I AM a feminist. I am for equality. Not men over women and not women over men. I don't believe social constructs should be the basis of how you treat people.<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Feminism.

It was initially made just for myself but I decided if others want it too, then why not. <strong>It's 40 pages and is 8x10.</strong> I'm not putting it out for mass release or anything like that but if you do want it, then send me a message to <strong>sevgikphotography@googlemail.com</strong> and I will send you a copy of it.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3596/3414581927_2de6b09ae8.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 500px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3596/3414581927_2de6b09ae8.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><strong>Prices are as follows:<br /><br />Softcover: £20.00 <br />Hardcover, Dust Jacket £30.00 <br />Hardcover, ImageWrap £30.00<br /> <br />Postage and Packaging is an additional £8</strong><br /><br /><form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"><br /><input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"><br /><table><br /><tr><td><input type="hidden" name="on0" value="Book Type">Book Type</td></tr><tr><td><select name="os0"><br /> <option value="Softcover">Softcover £20.00<br /> <option value="Hardcover, Dust Jacket">Hardcover, Dust Jacket £30.00<br /> <option value="Hardcover, ImageWrap">Hardcover, ImageWrap £30.00<br /></select> </td></tr><br /></table><br /><input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="GBP"><br /><input type="hidden" name="encrypted" value="-----BEGIN PKCS7-----MIIIKQYJKoZIhvcNAQcEoIIIGjCCCBYCAQExggEwMIIBLAIBADCBlDCBjjELMAkGA1UEBhMCVVMxCzAJBgNVBAgTAkNBMRYwFAYDVQQHEw1Nb3VudGFpbiBWaWV3MRQwEgYDVQQKEwtQYXlQYWwgSW5jLjETMBEGA1UECxQKbGl2ZV9jZXJ0czERMA8GA1UEAxQIbGl2ZV9hcGkxHDAaBgkqhkiG9w0BCQEWDXJlQHBheXBhbC5jb20CAQAwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQAEgYALHA5+L1sDNLEz3HpPoE/T3PgThbS+QUej6tQBiYLDqwPgg2vud/O8+5PwOPH/vJtTy82zsrTgHQvwRalEe04s4kVBCfENqc8BmjX1CcXIF42k41hHQqZ7Xb2aE6PGAr/2ZqN/YbxCyFsMyVj3st2Pp7Wsz5zc6BvR7vw5U04GyjELMAkGBSsOAwIaBQAwggGlBgkqhkiG9w0BBwEwFAYIKoZIhvcNAwcECGQU1QOixBS4gIIBgEAK9SXIwQP/+/Ellk4g1gf98Ioyv9ZaHbYs3Eak4vJ2VVI1kV87w1TS67PnvsCpkGDsuswJY0VT5KJa/CWTPlrY/P2JommX0o5nBbT+Vgd/VQ4L7G+/lFTS9jrVVxHdXGPVHHErJALmNPKpEkgp2QvdTIhnkA0ahArwrjvwtIrSHERtxwq3pkzOe91AREFW56abjDpKh8k2taUfKHdXEKs5CeXMqc3cFAb+o7us9OKpBSZD26e6Axwv2bApKLzEpCaBqQTPbEUQnD/1G7lqz4gbk+nF8X9hBy5ngsUi83nepQzEyvG4ldR85ycEBR/6kFqpb7XvIINfW1R+4OU2LJTg2aooOXfZW9+KZY29LDJUg3hQeyu2G4UWe6RS1tXbJ5yYEkuQ+LyPGvHlpYKv4C0Ql5mUNQXH/Fq+w0YoZfbe074JA1b/GxAl0YO3bTypnqUmMIFDRCgbmDGmHHEyVbt7pvDGMHtpQlWclMPCaHjojk+Zz3rraIoSNtBIjKL4pKCCA4cwggODMIIC7KADAgECAgEAMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBQUAMIGOMQswCQYDVQQGEwJVUzELMAkGA1UECBMCQ0ExFjAUBgNVBAcTDU1vdW50YWluIFZpZXcxFDASBgNVBAoTC1BheVBhbCBJbmMuMRMwEQYDVQQLFApsaXZlX2NlcnRzMREwDwYDVQQDFAhsaXZlX2FwaTEcMBoGCSqGSIb3DQEJARYNcmVAcGF5cGFsLmNvbTAeFw0wNDAyMTMxMDEzMTVaFw0zNTAyMTMxMDEzMTVaMIGOMQswCQYDVQQGEwJVUzELMAkGA1UECBMCQ0ExFjAUBgNVBAcTDU1vdW50YWluIFZpZXcxFDASBgNVBAoTC1BheVBhbCBJbmMuMRMwEQYDVQQLFApsaXZlX2NlcnRzMREwDwYDVQQDFAhsaXZlX2FwaTEcMBoGCSqGSIb3DQEJARYNcmVAcGF5cGFsLmNvbTCBnzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEAwUdO3fxEzEtcnI7ZKZL412XvZPugoni7i7D7prCe0AtaHTc97CYgm7NsAtJyxNLixmhLV8pyIEaiHXWAh8fPKW+R017+EmXrr9EaquPmsVvTywAAE1PMNOKqo2kl4Gxiz9zZqIajOm1fZGWcGS0f5JQ2kBqNbvbg2/Za+GJ/qwUCAwEAAaOB7jCB6zAdBgNVHQ4EFgQUlp98u8ZvF71ZP1LXChvsENZklGswgbsGA1UdIwSBszCBsIAUlp98u8ZvF71ZP1LXChvsENZklGuhgZSkgZEwgY4xCzAJBgNVBAYTAlVTMQswCQYDVQQIEwJDQTEWMBQGA1UEBxMNTW91bnRhaW4gVmlldzEUMBIGA1UEChMLUGF5UGFsIEluYy4xEzARBgNVBAsUCmxpdmVfY2VydHMxETAPBgNVBAMUCGxpdmVfYXBpMRwwGgYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFg1yZUBwYXlwYWwuY29tggEAMAwGA1UdEwQFMAMBAf8wDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEFBQADgYEAgV86VpqAWuXvX6Oro4qJ1tYVIT5DgWpE692Ag422H7yRIr/9j/iKG4Thia/Oflx4TdL+IFJBAyPK9v6zZNZtBgPBynXb048hsP16l2vi0k5Q2JKiPDsEfBhGI+HnxLXEaUWAcVfCsQFvd2A1sxRr67ip5y2wwBelUecP3AjJ+YcxggGaMIIBlgIBATCBlDCBjjELMAkGA1UEBhMCVVMxCzAJBgNVBAgTAkNBMRYwFAYDVQQHEw1Nb3VudGFpbiBWaWV3MRQwEgYDVQQKEwtQYXlQYWwgSW5jLjETMBEGA1UECxQKbGl2ZV9jZXJ0czERMA8GA1UEAxQIbGl2ZV9hcGkxHDAaBgkqhkiG9w0BCQEWDXJlQHBheXBhbC5jb20CAQAwCQYFKw4DAhoFAKBdMBgGCSqGSIb3DQEJAzELBgkqhkiG9w0BBwEwHAYJKoZIhvcNAQkFMQ8XDTA5MDgwMTE3NTkyOVowIwYJKoZIhvcNAQkEMRYEFKjdw8WwER1qO/qKRNWWitvMQ0SvMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUABIGAWDOojspAe0OaneT+Nw3zsMY1FFE++jgsQGpz6BMr+K2jFvS1kKWZpSru16H47X/osEjXD84uQexadPpvd6PsaL8r6bdrIwkrJ7mLFMGjI1PSFEIn3x1SM+dyfEH24coswkNFBXLMdC2HhCDK143KHdvTv/NOPKAA/DhY/tuVkMU=-----END PKCS7-----<br />"><br /><input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"><br /><img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_GB/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"><br /></form><br /><br /><br />Since I'm selling this directly myself and not through somewhere like Blurb, I can customise all the orders and send personal notes with them. <br />If you also want to combine this with a print, then shipping on the print will be free (obviously).

I'll explain why through photos (click photos for bigger size)<br /><br />As soon as I got up onto the jungle gym, a young group of girls surrounded me and bombarded me with questions. "what are you doing? why? what are you taking photos of? why? what is it for? why? how are you going to take the pic?" and so forth.<br /><br />so, I explained how it all works.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioeYyRW3mcWILQQZbKddYyQYukz0wEnJDoK1Yc1-A4NGi3uq0W4S1DO1ROkZMLZDLM66zOlH1R1TtWQqmLzR3gaKs7Bn939B-_sVNJI0XagI0-nGIkzPT00vVeYlIWGXZP90Pq2tt5c3hQ/s1600-h/_DSC003666.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioeYyRW3mcWILQQZbKddYyQYukz0wEnJDoK1Yc1-A4NGi3uq0W4S1DO1ROkZMLZDLM66zOlH1R1TtWQqmLzR3gaKs7Bn939B-_sVNJI0XagI0-nGIkzPT00vVeYlIWGXZP90Pq2tt5c3hQ/s400/_DSC003666.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316127359077368578" /></a><br /><br />set up the camera, turn on the wireless remote button thingy, go into place and shoot. In this pic, I was showing them how it works. "you press the button on the remote, then it sets off a 2 second timer on the camera" *points* "see the light? that means the timer has started"<br /><br />then they told me about photos they done at home with their parents' digi cams. All the funny faces they pulled - which led to, "can you do *this* face? how about this one?" Then came "can you take a picture doing that face?" ... why yes, yes I can (and I couldnt keep a straight face after this) :P<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeiFVVLX8m8hcBwI8O7lOGebSog9VSKZVY4zZg_LWlDHu5bdW80prGf-llxhtRmnw3yNGhn0Fcmwz-NTH_nD3rHr9I2JJ8OlAJOu9wabVKENNszKSTHHv2c-Ieq_x47fOp9Yus8Ke86Q0F/s1600-h/_DSC005000.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeiFVVLX8m8hcBwI8O7lOGebSog9VSKZVY4zZg_LWlDHu5bdW80prGf-llxhtRmnw3yNGhn0Fcmwz-NTH_nD3rHr9I2JJ8OlAJOu9wabVKENNszKSTHHv2c-Ieq_x47fOp9Yus8Ke86Q0F/s400/_DSC005000.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316128738589081874" /></a><br /><br />Then it looked like the girls werent gonna listen to my, "if you girls stand over *THERE* on that side, out of the picture, then I'll show it to you once I'm finished" as can be seen here, in an unedited outtake<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhDF3IWZVXwPOn6IX-OFUNzGYPnbyQX5VdBYIXHts91sYA5A23Vq6vXcKAOsD3cr39BQC6rtVlwkTs6vJwBcM1N7F2-5WT2cmCAoBeIduFcCcrgWA49kd6WW_xxBEdv3Tv62to_qWK4UUJ/s1600-h/_DSC004333.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhDF3IWZVXwPOn6IX-OFUNzGYPnbyQX5VdBYIXHts91sYA5A23Vq6vXcKAOsD3cr39BQC6rtVlwkTs6vJwBcM1N7F2-5WT2cmCAoBeIduFcCcrgWA49kd6WW_xxBEdv3Tv62to_qWK4UUJ/s400/_DSC004333.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316132308974275938" /></a><br /><br />So, I decided it's best to call it a wrap and make do with what I got.

I've started work on my website so hopefully that will be finished in the coming months and I can move everything over there :)<br /><br />Also - I'm saving up for a masters degree so all money made from anything photo related goes towards that so please please buy my prints. I'm also going to be doing 1 on 1 photoshop sessions for an hourly fee so if you're interested, please let me know and I can give you further details. My fee is VERY reasonable so let me know.

How freaking awesome!! Apparently the last one of its kind was in Feb, 1990 so this for us Londoners is a pretty damn special day. Buses aren't working, trains are suspended all over the place, no school and so forth. REALLY great!<br /><br />So anyway, I got up at 9:30am (if you know me well, this is as shocking as the snow day itself) and had breakfast, got dressed warm and climbed up to the roof of my building. Nice! Untouched snow. Not like the dirty snow on the ground that all the kids had already stepped in. ;) We decided to build a snow-woman rather than a snowman because it meant we could make it prettier (this is what happens when it's girls that are building haha).<br /><br />Here she is!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihfJK9jVIFi23xiW9_iFFgGPIoM4gJt9MXqnug0L0ZxnlcIDS6hTypQJdcckKFANIGPrMc2YUndWp2x0935ndnd5lsVQFtcqkI5Ir_43pYH2VxtBIMbhOOMKOeDzHEAcRLXgELx_6nmVa9/s1600-h/3248862320_d9a0ef7b22_b%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihfJK9jVIFi23xiW9_iFFgGPIoM4gJt9MXqnug0L0ZxnlcIDS6hTypQJdcckKFANIGPrMc2YUndWp2x0935ndnd5lsVQFtcqkI5Ir_43pYH2VxtBIMbhOOMKOeDzHEAcRLXgELx_6nmVa9/s400/3248862320_d9a0ef7b22_b%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298326360409798258" /></a><br />(click to see larger)<br /><br />We had a bikini top for her too but it looked weird so we decided to take it off. We also had knitting wool for hair but after two hours, it was way too cold to bother with it so my clown wig had to do :P<br /><br />Here's a pic of me with our lil lady - taken by my brother (who is actually a naturally good photographer but he doesn't care for it very much)<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzMHUj6uZyxaIsMNtKF7zf6Fhhge5i9WUwvlbcKsOUx25Jy0IvnQOfkaUpSpAzVe5JHgoJwy34Uenu7sfa6v4ZwL4YHDMThFKr30qETG1bd3Gv8J6FmVDPAyqnGO_uyvQf5spdxS2BZH5z/s1600-h/3248029863_7b6d04258f%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzMHUj6uZyxaIsMNtKF7zf6Fhhge5i9WUwvlbcKsOUx25Jy0IvnQOfkaUpSpAzVe5JHgoJwy34Uenu7sfa6v4ZwL4YHDMThFKr30qETG1bd3Gv8J6FmVDPAyqnGO_uyvQf5spdxS2BZH5z/s400/3248029863_7b6d04258f%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298327094206601890" /></a><br /><br />So you'd think we'd be done.

So, we (my brother) cut her from the ground, lifted her to the ledge and mounted her there, up high, where everyone could see her!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKY0ZeEPEnkaCVJ4PLReCZWcywZuZ7phFyKhriyeaAPjAaCHMTfLQIwWCZ_639ltbnUJl_dnhJKtdfltZoLB_VbTCY3HDTuEjUicAzAuBi7O_qCZSvknNKRWxGMbnnDHI3mUoEkbseSkUr/s1600-h/3248041717_e2f9db4fb8_b%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKY0ZeEPEnkaCVJ4PLReCZWcywZuZ7phFyKhriyeaAPjAaCHMTfLQIwWCZ_639ltbnUJl_dnhJKtdfltZoLB_VbTCY3HDTuEjUicAzAuBi7O_qCZSvknNKRWxGMbnnDHI3mUoEkbseSkUr/s400/3248041717_e2f9db4fb8_b%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298327768285797538" /></a><br />(click for large)<br /><br />We named this, "Woman On The Edge" :P<br /><br />From that pic, you can just how high up it is and if she jumps, it'll definitely end in death.

You can find quite a lot by going to google and searching for "free photoshop hair brush". I got mine from deviantart for free. Be sure to check out how the creator of the brushes allows usage.<br /><br />If you have a file but dont know how to save it to photoshop, you basically drag and drop the file by going: My Computer > C Drive > Program Files > Adobe > Photoshop CS4 > Presets > Brushes<br /><br />Then on photoshop you can load it by clicking the "brush" icon, then at the top where it shows your selection, brush size etc, there's a little arrow at the top of the drop down bar. You select "load brushes" and it will show you the brush you've just downloaded.<br /><br />Ok - so lets get to the actual photoshop addition element of it and how to make it look real.<br /><br />To demonstrate, I'm going to use my X-Ray photo<br /><br />Here is the picture already editted but without the hair<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7nvZenn8fefnCi2lHkrgt8Zx50HpgBzdWGvUdZ7EJKOTkMXgNNHQZzhyphenhyphenpmLv0AxdxRjP9zOmCbsdBV5MXcCYShlejk183F6GtM3z7Wcy8uUEO4ZAQRJz9tjR-byYOdgVdbKLiBofUe_hy/s1600-h/tutorialpic1s.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7nvZenn8fefnCi2lHkrgt8Zx50HpgBzdWGvUdZ7EJKOTkMXgNNHQZzhyphenhyphenpmLv0AxdxRjP9zOmCbsdBV5MXcCYShlejk183F6GtM3z7Wcy8uUEO4ZAQRJz9tjR-byYOdgVdbKLiBofUe_hy/s400/tutorialpic1s.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5273202652892989122" /></a><br /><br />Now, using the "eyedropper tool", we select the main colour of our hair. This will make sure we're using the right shade.<br /><br />Create a new empty layer by going to the "create new layer" icon at the bottom right corner of the layers pallette.<br /><br />Select the hair brush you want and it the size you'd like it to be. You can change size and direction of the brush by selecting the brush then going to the "brushes" panel and selecting "brush tip shape".<br /><br />Then apply the hair brush to the new layer and go as wild as you'd like.<br /><br />Erase the parts that overlap with your face, ears etc using a soft eraser brush.<br /><br />So far, we should be here:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE6FKfTrRr1YGhYlEJpM6cVF4voshrHXHkSgwsUa6-lhlg5ACyqwpv1NZajpyYkHc1rEBwMVOGkV29MRlx-G19np-LlgR1MIfwum15uPrOgdVREXBnDMHVazdyO-iiiLoA4Ah_E6RugsSP/s1600-h/Tutorial2s.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE6FKfTrRr1YGhYlEJpM6cVF4voshrHXHkSgwsUa6-lhlg5ACyqwpv1NZajpyYkHc1rEBwMVOGkV29MRlx-G19np-LlgR1MIfwum15uPrOgdVREXBnDMHVazdyO-iiiLoA4Ah_E6RugsSP/s400/Tutorial2s.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5273206254610144658" /></a><br /><br />It looks cool, but one problem.. everything else in the photo has a shadow to it's bottom right but the hair does not. So, we will create a shadow for it.<br /><br />Right click on your "new layer" with the hair and click "duplicate". We now have a second layer of hair exactly the same as the first.<br /><br />Move it very slightly down and very slightly to the right. Not a lot<br /><br />We now have our shadow's base. But it just looks like an extension of the rest of the hair we've created so...<br /><br />By going to blending modes which is located in the top left corner of the layers pallette - automatically set to "normal", we click it to bring down a selection of different blending modes and we select "soft light". This is already looking like a shadow but it's a little strong so we lower the opacity until we get it to look more realistic and more similar to the rest of the shadows in the photo.<br /><br />and<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx85niGn5wzB0GUujdpTVfCvhXc4HZ_EbwqSec9Sh0czdYFFsKRS6Z3KTYtHzTHi9Fif94CWFQsssMYqovDJ6b7J6Z9aL70LAViWlYXFkpx9LE1RFY785wv7CCSMuyLjIGynVBa3bqxS3P/s1600-h/Tutorial3s.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx85niGn5wzB0GUujdpTVfCvhXc4HZ_EbwqSec9Sh0czdYFFsKRS6Z3KTYtHzTHi9Fif94CWFQsssMYqovDJ6b7J6Z9aL70LAViWlYXFkpx9LE1RFY785wv7CCSMuyLjIGynVBa3bqxS3P/s400/Tutorial3s.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5273208219172721618" /></a><br /><br />voila.<br /><br /><br />side note: if you have light coloured hair or have highlights, then your task is going to be much longer because the only way I know how to do it with light hair is to erase chunks of the hair (making new layers each time you need to use a different colour) and keep changing it's colour using the eyedropper tool over and over again.<br /><br />Hope this helps!
