Studio V's Daily Hotshot! Sept/04/06

[Clipper]

Fitter shows us what it's like to take a screenshot as if through the eyes of a camera lens. Notice the blurring in the background. A simple composition, but very effective editing. I've asked Fitter to head over to Studio and explain how he created this "Nikkon" effect. What do you think of this editing style? And that's today's Hotshot!

[Fitter]

I have used photoshop on that edit...just did a fence selection around the plane and after select inverse....motion blur....and select inverse again then sharpen and auto levels at the end....
Thanks Clipper for the kind post

Nice pic, love russian planes , btw, at what local time did you post this, Clipper??

That's great, but it's a 'Canon' effect, assuming it's meant to be taken by the best cameras!

I posted at 8:17 EDT Alonso and Canon do make great cameras Heathaze. I had an AE1 at one point, was a favourite of mine for many years.  :)
