Hi all,
I was bored so did this edit. Please do make comments. I don't care if they are negative or positive. Some tip's would also be appreciated. It's not the greatest edit, but it's certainly one of my best. Please note that I do not know how to make props and this was done with scratch...

I used that aproach a couple of times. Always ended up with something like this and a lot of bruises though... :(

AHH!..
Attack of the..

Try stopping the car before you jump out eh.. ;D


Try using layers, then applying transparency or a effect..

This is what i got, with a little 2 min fiddle..
Sorry but i had to give it a go..

Reminds me of "Field of Dreams".

First one is better, but very nice both of them. Like Andy said, using layers and then setting the top one's blending options to multiply or something makes it look a lot better.

Here's what I do on most of my edits before I start other work:

1) Open the raw pic up and duplicate the background layer (Ctrl-J in Photoshop).
2) Set the new layer's blending to soft light (or hard light for lower contrast pics).
3) Do a 1.2px gaussian blur on the new layer.

I did this to yours (sorry, couldn't resist) and this is the result:

In any case, stunning edits, nice work ;) 8)

Cheers,

Jon

PS. If you are using Photoshop I can give you the action for the above process ready made. Just hit play and it will run 8)
