Fix-it Friday #69 at i heart faces



This Fix-it Friday photo was submitted by Rachel Durik, an IHF contributor. Here is the original photo:

And here is my edit (image is clickable to see it larger):

FIF69HT


Doing such an intense crop on a low-res photo made it quite grainy, but you get the gist of what I was wanting to accomplish... focusing more on the couple and their faces.

Workflow in PS CS4:
~cropped
~fixed shadows/highlights
~adjusted levels
~Noiseware at low opacity
~warmed up tones by adding a color fill layer with a golden tone and set to soft light, lowered opacity
~added a vignette

Thanks for looking and come check out the other edits at i heart faces!

  3. Love this crop! Most of the edits I've seen have cropped it in one way or another, but yours is the first horizontal one I've seen, and it's great!
