Default Racer J

Before
racer-j


After

racer-j-art



I had this photo of my son which I really liked but as he moves quite a bit, it was a bit out of focus and a little blurred on top of it. So I did a little artsy-fatrsy processing and came up with something I think looks quite nice and can now use the photo. This is before and after above.

I like it. At first the out of focus helmet bothered me, but with the edits you made, it works.


nice work

I like it too, maybe you could try a softer vignette?

I really like the colors in the first one. The blue background with all the yellows in the foreground. I love the contrast. I would like to see more of that in the second.

Thank you, I too liked that combination but it was difficult to keep and remove the blur, with the tools I have anyway. Might give it another go but at least I had something to use from it as it is.
