Hi Pascal-
I hope you don't mind.
I prefer my moving subjects to have some place to go in the photo. Therefore, I moved your rider to the left. With such a small image, it was not easy, and the quality (size quality, not image quality!) isn't there to do a great job, but this is my attempt.
~Cloned rider with rectangle marquee tool and moved him left.
~erased everything around him to restore sea and sand to highlight
~used clone tool to remove the original rider
~used clone tool at 10% - 25% opacity to try and smooth sand (only semi-successfully though)
~vignetted with separate duplicate layer by darkening 10% +/-, and erasing with a 500 pixel brush at 33% hardness.
~I also had to erase the tail to remove some of the highlights, and then did a poor job of putting in some "flyaway" tail feathers.
~flattened and uploaded
Again, not a great job of post production, but it was fun. Thanks for such a wonderful image to play with!!!
~Vic~ |
