Tucker is a Cutie Patootie and probably spoiled rotten great work!!! (Fantastic detail and clarity)

Do you think matching the glow in the eyes through clone would be advantageous? Just when I used to do photos for clients the eyes ALWAYS had to match LOL (especially if the subject had a wondering eye) It's great just the way it is, only a suggestion

I see so much love in those eyes, bravo

Nice job, Tucker's a sweetie!

Nasty and weird, but good looking!

Awsome! Only one thing bothers me... the eye highlights. They seem to be in the wrong place and too fuzzy.
other than that I love it!

This is very cool... but... "enhance" does not mean "completely change"

The original image is in most chops... that still doesn't mean they're "enhanced."

this would fall under the questionable thing....are layers of cut originals fine or just basic adjustments? this is pretty cool either way.

ahh poop, controversy always means I'm gonna get the boot... double poop!!!

Well... I'm making Nachos!

Well I got pulled you negative Nancies.. JUST KIDDING.. went back to the drawing board and modified to go back to the guide lines ... sorry mods

what is a flood fill filter

But this looks cool... and far closer to the theme

Trips me out, well done = )

I think the theme evolved from a thread (by Vibeke? I'm not sure) that pointed out that for many Photography sites, and for photography in general nowadays, Photoshop (or whatever program) is commonly used to erase powerlines, enhance colors etc. for a "better" end product. This revolved around a debate (which goes far beyond the borders of this site) as to whether or not this type of enhancement is "photography" or "chopping."

Here, we generally steer closer to the "purist" side with the photography rules (which IMHO is a great thing). But someone suggested we have a photo theme without the usual photography restrictions of this site to see what kind of shots we got. Then, it was pointed out that a theme like that would be better on the Photoshop side... and... VOILA! This theme was born. So, you see, the initial intent was not to take a photo and change the content by adding things. It was to take a photo and "enhance" it.

Geexman... filters which apply to the image as a whole (e.g. contrast) are already legal in the photo contests, although just hitting "auto color" wouldn't do too well against someone who really knew how to edit well. What you cannot do (generally) are things that don't apply to the image as a whole - for example, if you had a great shot, except for those power lines through the top. In the photo section of this site, you could not legally take those power lines out. This theme was created to show shots like that, except that they could legally be "enhanced" without the power lines. That of course, is just one example. The point though, was that the shots (in this one theme) would not have things (objects/images etc.) ADDED to them.

Very creative Photoshop work with One Image!

PLEASE SEE High Resolution and then click on the picture to make it bigger so you can see her face close up. It is absolutely adorable!

there is a thing called cuteness overload (giggle snort)

Dead space is fun.. and the peak at the tutu is a bit naughty LOLOLOLOL

She is so adorable and it's a great shot. Nice work cleaning her up but it deserves a better background, maybe a little gradation, texture or a drop shadow for more interest, it seems a bit unfinished IMHO.

Agree the BG is a little boring... other than that. GREAT job !

How's that? A bit better? I don't want to take away from her adorable face by adding too much background.

demonstration of how to do normal things with a nice picture, bravo

very nice

Great improvement. Good luck author!
