Shadow On The Face

I want to be able to make a picture of myself like the album cover of John Lennon's Greatest Hits.
I've searched a lot of tutorials on youtube and It doesn't seem to look like it.
I want it to look like it is in the photo, Anyone help?

Here's the photo attached

hey guys, i was wondering how can i create a very soft shadow around the baby cloths?

the first pictures is mine, the second picture is to show the shadow I'm looking to get.

Thank you all

Hi guys,

First post so if it's a really obvious question then apologies! Using Photoshop Elements 13 currently - did a short Photoshop course last year for the basics but feel free to talk to me like an idiot! :-)

Recently returned from Australia - one of the photos we took has a cloud shadow that looks (a tiny bit!) like the outline of Australia. I want to put an outline of a map of Australia over the cloud and write the names of a few places we went on it so it looks like a map. I traced round a map of Australia and tried to put it over the top of the cloud shadow, but can't make it work properly. Ideally it'd be see-through so it was literally the outline and the original photo still visible in the background.

If this makes any sense then any advice would be welcome! :-)
Thanks x

i have an image of a tailor's mannequin in photoshop CS5.

i have made a fake shadow that disappears into the distance.
all ok - BUT.... i need to attach/pin the shadow legs to the point where they meet the legs of the mannequin, so that i can distort the shadow without it coming away from the real mannequin, otherwise it will look illogical!

i tried Puppet Warp tool but it seems you can only 'rotate' around points, making it look like a whirlpool!
Any ideas would be so so helpful, thank you

Why is it that when i paint with my brush i get a black surrounding shadow ?



(I have pointed the white arrow on tat portion)

Hi!

I'm having this problem since I upgraded to Photoshop CC.

This logo is made with a Brush preset that I created when I was using Photoshop CS6, but now that I'm using photoshop CC, when I use the "Drop Shadow" option and I rasterize the layer, the shadow fixes itself into something that I don't want, I've tried a lot of things, but just can't make it look correctly.



The first picture shows the logo with the effect before rasterizing, and the second photo is after rasterizing.


What could be wrong? Help!

Hallo everybody,
following a tut about Photoshop compositing, I have to create a fake shadow on the ground. I make it pretty good (see image 1) using tre different layer copy with different blendings mode and Opacity.




But when i Merge three layer i loose my semitransparent shadow...it becomes completely black, at the starting point...
(see image 2)



What it wrong?

And than, if I want to blur the (unique) faked shadow layer, how can i male it without blurring all layers of the document? I try to use an empty layer as a Clipping mask, and I applied blur to it, without results...
please help!

Thx!

Can anyone help me do photoshop (face off/replace a face) some picture? It's kind of a prank for my friend's birthday, please help. Thanks ^^

So I am a self taught photoshopper and I had a friend ask me to do cover art for his next album. He's just a small time local artist and had the pretty generic idea of a photo mosaic of his face made up of other pictures, but I don't believe in doing poor quality work. I'm a little lost on how to go about this project though. I know that I have to place photos of the same color on his face to build it up but I'm not sure how to start. All I can find for tutorials on the subject either use the same photo over and over or use overlay or something to make the photos appear to be the right color when they aren't actually. Or people just use software to do it for them. Can anyone help with either tips or a link to a tutorial or anything about how to organically make a photo mosaic in photoshop. I don't want to use software because he wants to make money off his album and I don't want to step on copyright infringements and I also think it looks stiff. Any tips??

Hi. I did research on web, but did not find anything useful. I was hoping I can find some help here. I need to remove the blur from this pic for personal reasons. Any decent degree of blur removal or any modifications to make the face more recognizable are welcomed. I know the "this is not CSI" joke, but maybe something can be done. Thanks in advance.
