Two shots blended together.
40D
Polarizer
17-55 @55 /AV/Eval/ +2/3
f 11/ @ 1/13 and 1/15
ISO 100
Tripod
Cropped a little all around for comp.
Some burning of the midtones.
Blended using luminosity, and overlay, and black and white filters.
Comments/Suggestions Appreciated
A couple of question please. Did you use an external filter or apply one in PS. I won't ask you how to blend two pictures together but was it done in PS and is there any documentation in the ED forum.
I like the composition and how you positioned the dividing line near the top in a jagged fashion - very original image with nice technical tweaks.
Hi Jeff,
The polarizer was on the camera. The blending was done using two different pictures. Load open files into a stack. Files/stacks/use open files, do not align them in this case. Arrange the layers you want, you can release the BG layer and double clicking on it to make it layer 0 instead of Background, which makes it unlocked. I used different strengths on the polarizer, then blended those two together using luminosity at 50 percent. Then I went into NIK Efex Pro and converted it to B and W making a third layer. I blended this layer in overlay at 25 percent. Some final tweaking and that was about it. If you go to OOTB Fabs has a good tutorial on merging different photos together , this might help you.
