can you see the big edit??

[Blankstein]

I got enthused with “can you see the big edit??” discussion started by cortney23cy on June 10 in "People" and want you to check my creation below. So, can you see the big edit? How many big edits do you see?




Questions welcome.

At least six!

I am guessing that the girls were all from separate shots, but honestly I really don't know. The girl in the middle with the red water bottle seems to have something wrong with her shirt. It looks like the white stripe should be a straight stripe, but it looks like red from the shirt is brushed over it to cover something up. Then the second to the last girl on the bench has a yellowish shape next to her leg that doesn't look like it belongs... but other that that, I can't see where the edits are... Are you going to show the originals???

Courtney23cy, thanks for guessing! As a matter of fact, the girl in the middle has nothing wrong with her shirt, this part was not retouched. I was alarmed by the yellow shape as I have never paid attention to this – but it turned out to be a yellow folder that their coach dropped behind the bench on his back pack. I can see it clearly on one unrelated shot made on the same day. I should have retouched it to look more natural!
“The girls” were from abt. 10 separate shots, plus bits and pieces of background details may have been borrowed from other shots as well, so it will hardly worth the trouble to upload, even if I locate all of them on my HD.

It's the same damn girl! All 6 "girls" is the same girl, jut 6 different shots stitched together.

Which, btw, very good editing. Honestly, I don't think I would have noticed near as easy had you not told me to be looking for something.

Nice work.

Very cool. I'm going to have to try that with my kids... they always seem like they are getting into a million things at once, it would be a good representational photo.

Looks great! I cant wait until I get good enough at PS to do fun things like this!

Good edit, thats always a fun technique to do, it's used alot in extreme sport shots. You want a challenge try doing it with a biker hitting a ramp with his tires overlapping lol overlapping spokes take forever to do decently

Thanks mshockley! It is fun hearing testimonials like that, but you are not alone.
