Sometimes a bad pic>>>>>

like this one can be nice.



It dosen´t come out good so I will give it a chance with my magic hands.

The point is to show you what some Photoshop can do with a bad pic.

The golden rule is to get so good results from the start, a blurry pic is never easy to get good.

So with some adjustments will my final work looks like this.

Remember?



And now.

Nicely done, i think some guys on ebay do this sort of thing when selling watches to make it look better than it is.

You're very good with a camera I tell you! I love your signature "Buy a professional camera and you´re a professional
photographer, buy a flute and you own a flute. "

So true! You are quite the whizz! I'd love to see what kind of pics you'd do of my rock collection.
Plus having the skills you have with Photoshop makes you an impressive force! I loved that pic of an AK (I think) with all the numbers "fallen" off!

Excellent work making a "bad" picture into a good one.

But there is still a little bit too much noise for my taste.

well, Jocke, the problem for most of us is that we can't use photoshop to fix things. we rely on programs like Picassa, that are much simpler, but not nearly as versatile. oh well........
