Default What Would You Do #94

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The rules of the game are simple. Edit the photo in this post, in anyway that you see fit. Change it, boost the colors, give it a border, change the background, just use your imagination. Then come back and tell us how you did it. Easy as that!

Now, let's see what you would do!



If you would like your image to be posted please send me a medium sized photo and a link to a larger version

This weeks image is from the talented Douglas. Thanks for sending me your image!

I dare say chap. You took the "Go Green" a bit too far!

Selectively cut out the subject from the background.
Copy - Paste - Flip
New Layer - Type=Color - Paint one guy green
Merge layers
Curve adjust and crop.
