Nikon DSLR "Picture Of The Day"

[esp]

Great cat pics kjmdrumz3. I am sure we will be seeing action shots of the puppy terrorizing the cat soon.

Here is another shot from the wedding I was talked into shooting. It was in a very dark church and as you can see by my sig I was not quite prepared but there were a few keepers. I used Orton effect on this one and liked it better than the original.

I just bought a new car (because of gas prices), don't be jealous:

Runs on "human power".

ESP, the image looks just great to my eye, would you mind to share the trick you did to achieve contrasty blur?

It is a fairly easy process if you have photoshop. I took this info from a group on Flick:


1.) Duplicate the Background Layer and name it "Sharp"
2.) Duplicate the "Sharp" Layer
3.) Set the blend mode of the "Sharp Copy" layer to "screen"
4.) Right click the top layer and select "Merge Down"
5.) Duplicate the "Sharp" Layer again and name it "Out Of Focus"
6.) Go to Filters - Blur - Gaussian Blur and use a setting between 10 and 20 depending on how much of an effect you want.
7.) Set the blend mode of the "Out of Focus" layer to "Multiply"
8.) That's IT!

Most girls don't like it because they can't fit in it.

Based on the license plate, is the car stolen?
