The classic way

Ever thought about the old classic painters ?? And ever tempted to use the “oil filter” in Photoshop ?? Do not do that. Use some layers instead and the make the Glow effect work for you. It is easier you may think. Give it a try and your normal pictures may get that “boom, boom” effect as well.

Go down, on your knees, even flat on the ground and discover the wonders of mother nature. Small ponds become oceans, little piles of sand become hills and placed in the ponds they will be mysterious islands. Do not walk away, see thru your finder and you will produce fabolous pictures with a total different look. Thast pictures with the “boom boom” effect.This picture was made on my knees in the wet sand at the beach in Zingst and i enjoyed it.

Its fun… another Hipsta. This time i made the effect a bit stronger. It is all about how strong you bend the curves :)

Try it… it is fun.

Selfmade accessories, how do they work ? Are they accepted by the models, do they fit into scene ? How to place them ? A lot of questions…. You have to test that BEFORE shooting. Arrange a quick scenario, name it “Testshoot” be honest. It may have ugly outcome. Whatsoever YOU can learn on that stuff a lot. I tried it too and added a flash light with a snoot to set a spot of light on her face, enhancing the visual effect.

Oh, i understood. It is even better to demonstrate the Lensbaby effect with a girls picture. Yes, you are right, so here are two with the preferred model…

Hope you enjoy them.
