    In a previous post (here) I worked with a photo of me and did some colour correction. Now I’ve done some more work. We’ll call this one Version 3.

    Version 2 (From Previous Post):
    Version 3 :

    This time I’ve done a few things…
    Firstly I did some cropping and a little more colour correction using a curves adjustment layer and a hue/sat adjustment layer.
    Then came some general touchups of the face (I know, there’s only so much I can do on a face like that lol).
    Last came cleaning all the
    paperwork etc off the wall on the right hand side of the picture.

    I tried just a fully plain background, and changing the window to remove the bars and blinds, but in the end I stuck with this version. I may yet change my mind but we’ll see I guess.
    Still more to be done of course!!

    Awesome photo taken by one of my friends.

    She said to me “i suck at photo taking”, and I find this on her flickr shortly after!!! Proves herself wrong quite well I think. =]

    So I’ve been doing some stuff with retouching and colour correction of photos lately, and predominantly in the area of portraits, getting skin colour correct.

    As a result, I thought I’d put up a before and after of one of the basic pics I have done some really simple correction on. This photos was taken in my office with my Nokia N95.

    After:

    It’s by no means perfect, but it’s a start. I’ll post further revisions of this image as I get time to do more work on it. =]

    And so the return to blogging begins. A little more advanced than my main site but I couldn’t be bothered building the functionality in yet. =P

    Eventually I’ll scrap wordpress and make my own, or just skin wordpress to match. Time will tell.

    So check back from time to time and I may just have been bored enough to write something… and on occasion it may even be interesting!! =P
