PM me for my PayPal address please. If you decide to use both, I would require a larger payment.

That's not cool, given the circumstances.

You either missed the part where he said "memorial" as in 'death', or you're a complete asshole.

Agreed, I don't seen what makes this dirty, but that is why I am not an amazing example of humanity like you.

As always, great work!!!

I look forward to these threads because you never cease to amaze me with what you can do!

Just a heads up: I won't do this photo because I got sick and there are people who will do it better than me.

Many people told me it was just about impossible to do this picture correctly .

But thanks to ATOT's help and ThePresence's talent, I have a superb picture to use on my Dad's memorial. I could not be happier.

Here it is.

Fishing


So thanks to everybody for the help!

Good job Thepresence.

wow that is some impressive work ThePresence!

 

[thirtythree]

Ah, I was gonna mention the scratch and spots too, but I see ThePresence already got them. Good work.

EDIT: The ripples towards the end of his fishing pool looked kind of strange to me, but I see that they're all-natural.

hey ThePresence, I dont know if its too much to ask, or whether you'd want to divulge ur secrets, but could you give us a step by step description of how you did it? It really is impressive work

I kinda explained it earlier in the thread.
I did not bother erasing the hat.
I just created layers of water over it.
The challenge is to blend it in correctly.
For that I used layer masks, patches and levels.
I also used a big soft-edged eraser brush to soften the edges of some layers.
Then I just dodged and burned.
I think that was pretty much it.
Took about 15 minutes IIRC.
