get camera, put it on tripod. place the tripod. open hood take picture(don't move camera once picture is done) close hood. take picture with the hood closed. now take the two pictures and overlay them on a photoshop program and make one semi transparent and the other photo just leave alone, and then you have a cool picture like above. the only problem is taking a good picture:breakdancesmilie: btw dsdaddy sweet pic. |
I think it looks great. :Woot:

Thanks for the comments!
I work with a guy who's a Photoshop Pro. Hopefully one of these days I can get some good tips from him that I can actually keep up with. He starts talking about different tools and settings and I get lost. I envy anybody that has mastered Photoshop. :worship2: |

I turned up the brightness a little on the 2nd layer since the original pic was a little darker than I wanted. |

old topic I know, but I gave this hood thing a go too,
Attachment 26687 Attachment 26688 I can't seem to get the edges to fade softly like you guys', whenever I lower the hardness, it just makes it in circle form and it's hard to make it look smooth.. =\ More practice I guess |
