[request] Hat Removal

I would like to have this picture of my mom tattooed on me but I don't want the graduation hat and this is the best picture I have of her. The (amazing) artist doesn't alter photos in a major way and this would be out of my skill level. I don't know how hard it would be to make look good because you have to guess on the shape of the head and hair style, I can post other pictures of her if requested but the ones that I have I don't think helped the process. I hope someone is willing to help me out with this because it would mean a lot to me. I will post the final result if someone is interested. Thanks in advance .

Professional Graduation Photos Are Ruined - Because Of One Fake Eyelash. Please Help.

Hi everyone,

I have no idea how to use Photoshop and I don't have Photoshop. But a friend has suggested I make a request for help on a Photoshop forum.

Long story short, every single graduation photo is ruined because of the fake eyelashes in my right eye. I didn't apply it perfectly, and throughout the day, it kept dropping down. No one, not my family members, not my friends, not even the photographer, bothered to tell me my eyelash was completely ****ed. I think the photographer thought I had a legit lazy eye :(

I can't do graduation again and I'm really upset that the photos are just worthless because of this little thing. I don't even want to show my huge family in Thailand. Had I known it was this bad I would've tried to do my eyelashes again.
The digital copies of the professional photos also cost almost $200. Such a waste now. :(



It's not so obvious from a quick glance, but when you actually look at it, it's quite shocking.

Early that day, it wasn't that bad, and I guess the angle helped. ;/

There are a total of 25 photos, but if I can get 4 favourites, or maybe even 2 photos fixed, I would be so, so grateful.
I've asked my boyfriend, but even he seems unwilling because apparently "it'd take a whole day". So I understand if no one can help me, but even a bit of advice or redirecting to someone/another forum would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Need Help With A Picture Of Me With A Wolf

Hi,

So I spent some time at a wolf sanctuary, where an alpha male wolf bonded to me. He was 240LBS and I am 6'1", when he stood on his hind paws, we were eye to eye. He was a very big wolf.

I recently did some work for an artist who deals only in oils. She has offered to draw a picture of me and the wolf.

The only problem is, she is good at reproducing from pictures.

The one picture I want her to draw for me in oils, is one where the wolf is submitting to me, burying his head in my chest, and I am laying my head on the back of his neck. This is special, because this particular wolf was an aggressive alpha. He had to be segregated from his pack because he was tearing them up. You can count on one hand the number of people who were allowed in with him, due to his aggressive nature. Yet, he submitted to me, not because I was bigger than he was, or more aggressive, but because he accepted me as a brother.

My head is turned the wrong way! You can see the gentle expression on the wolf's face, but you can only see the back of my head.




Here is the picture I want her to paint...


Leading up to it, and to give you an idea of his size...


Also a good shot of the size difference between us, I am 6'1"


Here's a good pic of my relaxed face, getting a wolf kiss.

Are any of these usable to photoshop me facing the right way in the first picture above?

Noisewear Artefacts - How To Get Rid Of Them?

Hello!

I am new here
I hope I post it in the right branch, was pending btw. general and plug-ins.

I experience some strong artefacts that seem to come out after Imagenomics Noisewear application.
The photograph is challenging, so I am not wondering that it does not work that well, but I hope there is a way to get rid of the artefacts.

Initial condition:
ISO-1600 shot with Nikon D800
1. processed the picture in RawTherapee: exposure compensation +3.6 (I doubt that these are real 3.6, since 0 is darker than the out of cam jpg exposure), lightness +36 and some curves.
2. Imagenomic Noisewear in PS, does a good job, but artefacts remain. (default settings, luminance 70, color 80)
3. Topaz filter. that enhances of course also the artefacts.

Attached some shots.

Now, I understand that a ISO-1600 picutre with all that processing (exp. comp., topaz filter) will look messy. However, it seems the artefacts consist ONLY of black and white pixels (look at the 400x). Hence, I think there is a way to get rid of them.

And, yes, these artefacts are STRONGLY visible even at 20%, esp. because they are all over the picture.

Any ideas?

thanks a lot!

Request: Collaboration For Testing A New Effect For Substituting Color In Images

Hi all, I'm new to the forum and I'm a freelance researcher in image editing.
I'm italian, so sorry in advance for my english .
I'm also a little crazy , I left my job as employee 'cause I believe in my researches and I want to make them my only job.
I developed a new effect for substituting colors in images. I would like to test the goodness of this new approach useful for retouching photos ... so I ask you a little collaboration, if you want to help me, you should retouch the image that I attached in this way: change the color of the pen fromred to white.
It's important to me to know how much time you spent in retouching the image and what applications you used for achieving the result, so please post the altered image together with the requested info. In a few days I'll post the image elaborated with my algorithm.
Really thanks to all, in advance, for the collaboration.

Help Editing A Photo

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if someone could please help me out. I do not have Photoshop, so I just downloaded GIMP tonight. I am beginning to learn the ropes but would really like a photo edited in the mean time.

There is an annoying pipe in the 2 attached photos that I would like to be removed, if possible. If anyone can spare a few minutes to remove it that would be awesome. Also, the lion in the first picture doesn't seem to be as rich in color and/or in focus as he is in the second picture, so if a certain effect (the picture seems "whiter" than the 2nd, so maybe it's too bright?) can be used to help him stand out that would be great. I trust your opinions/suggestions, so if you want to mess around with it and add certain things please do. I'm sure these two edits are very basic (item removal and sharpening/adding color to an image), so I hope to learn how to do it in GIMP within the next few days.

Thanks so much

Fixing Skin Tone Due To Background Sun

Hey guys. This'll be my first post on this forum. I've never been that into photography and image editing until I got my hands on PS and realized how amazing the process is and how many changes you can make. I actually spend quite a bit of time messing with pics in my spare time now. That said, I'm still a beginner when it comes to this program, so I need help on a couple things.

The current picture I need advice on deals with the old "sun in the background" problem. Its a picture of myself riding a horse, but a noob mistake made me forget that you need the sun facing you in order to not have your skin appear dark. I know to correct this in the future, but I'd like to know if there's a way that PS can make this look a bit better.

I'm not uploading the actual image, but a really good comparison looks like this:



How could I get the skin tone looking normal?

A Minimal Request (portal 2 Glados)

Hello everyone. So, I've seen there are some people in this forum who have also asked for some request, so I'll do the same hoping someone has the time to help me. There is image from a DeviantArt user.

I find it really beautifull, but I don't like the Big Portal logo - after all I know what is it about- and as a first request I'd like that to be removed. That is something I'll try on my own, too, and post the result soon (maybe i'll edit this post), but there is something else I want. The lyrics there, it's just too much for my eyes. I thought it would be a good idea if someone who's really good, could replace the with some random code lines (I'll search for some certain right after I publish this post). In that way it would be more minimal and wouldn't require much attention from the eyes.

Thanks in advance. I'll be soon editing the post to add the code lines I suggest as well as my exertion of removing the portal logo.

(Turn out I cannot post links, so I'll just upload the image. Just keep in mind that this is made from the user Zeptozephyr in DeviantArt.)

Complex Selections (not Hair)

I have hundreds of dancer photos I need to change backdrops on. I don't have an issue with hair but many of the pictures the dancers are wearing crowns which is so time consuming I may never finish the photos. Can someone please give me a suggestion on how to handle the crowns? Here is an example of one I've completed but not completely happy with:



I have searched everywhere but only find tutorials on hair.

I am using CS6 and using the quick selection tool and refine edge.

Thanks in advance,
