Ah yes. The original was great, but this is so much better! Good vision.
I just wonder if you should have left the green of the stem and leaves, as well.

greenandyellow In reply to average-jeau [2007-11-06 16:24:58 +0000 UTC]

Well, you are now the second person to suggest that about the stem, and I actually did try a version like that, and (this is a secret) I think I do prefer it, but I am horribly lazy you see, and the problem was that the other version was darker and less contrasted (I messed up a bit I think), so the hair only look like a black blob, and instead of starting again, I just posted this one...

Thank you so much for your comment and critique

What do you mean by a print ? Do you mean through deviant ? I have no idea how that works lol, but I since I always post edit on resized images, I'm not sure they are large enough for prints ?

average-jeau In reply to greenandyellow [2007-11-18 21:51:10 +0000 UTC]

Well, I was just teasing for the most part. You have so many great shots, I wouldn't mind having prints of them all. But I've got to be realistic here--no money and no room. Sorry to mislead you.
Not that I'd turn down a print of you, my best friend on DA.

Personnellement, celle-ci.
Très belle photo de toutes façons, qu'elle soit en couleur ou en N&B. Tu as très bien capté le regard.

Merci beaucoup, dans cette version, la rose ressort plus que les yeux, mais ça ajoute quand même quelque chose de dramatique. Je susi contente que tu aimes

FerdydurkeZabelin [2007-10-31 22:09:11 +0000 UTC]

Le N&B! Rien d'étonnant de ma part, certes donc j'argumente. Son regard ressort beaucoup mieux, en particulier l'iris de ses yeux. On les distingue moins sur l'autre vu qu'ils sont marron-noisette (avec un peu de vert, je crois) par rapport à ses cheveux et à sa couleur de peau. D'ailleurs ses cheveux d'un noir profond soulignent idéalement son visage.

Je regrette un peu que la pétale au bord de ses lèvres ne soit pas aussi rougeoyante que sur l'autre.
As-tu essayé de mettre la rose en N&B? Je pense qu'elle devrait ressortir dans les tons sombres. Ou alors laisser la tige bien verte ce qui ajouterait un contraste de couleur.

Une dernière chose : tu peux faire savoir à ta soeur que je ne veux pas surtout pas la rencontrer au cas où elle serait naturellement aussi fatale qu'ici.

Moi aussi je préfère celle ci Le N&B ben ca raconte une autre hisoire... Je sais que le pétale a grisonné aussi C'est parce que j'ai mal fait le boulot. J'utilisais l'éonge pour désaturer et j'ai un peu débordé... Sinon c'est amusant tes suggestions, je les avais essayées, j'aveoue que j'ai hésité longtemps entre cette version ci et la version avec la tige laissée en vert. D'ailleurs j'ai fini par choisir celle ci non pas à caue de la couleur de la tige mais partce que l'autre était plus foncée et on distinguait presque aucun contraste dans les cheveux...

Je lui ferai savoir Tu as quelque chose contre les femmes fatales ?

Ai-je quelque chose contre les femmes fatales? Oh rien du tout, à part que je leur laisse trop la possibilité de l'être avec moi! Victime consentante que je suis... effectivement.

Driptah [2007-10-29 21:22:18 +0000 UTC]

artistically, this one wins, by a huge margin.

i find it very difficult to get a good (portrait) result when the focus is as sharp as this picture. for a colour portrait of such a lovely subject, it needs to be softer. plus, i think the background in the colour version was too stark.

my amateur opinion(s).

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

greenandyellow In reply to Driptah [2007-10-29 21:31:35 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, I'm so glad you think that. I love sharp focus though, but it didn't look good in the other one too much. The problem with hte background was that my wall is not white but pink...

MarkdV [2007-10-29 21:09:11 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow, what a difference! I like this version even better. Beautiful contrasts! The now cleaned up and even brighter background fits in much better than it did before. That, combined with the overall brightness of the image, almost makes her look angelic, though I'm not sure if that's what you want to hear, with the title being what it is right now.

!

Tip: I noticed that there are still quite a bunch of slightly colored patches in the B&W area, which seems to suggest that you've used some sort of brush to remove the colors. You'll get smoother results by using the lasso tool to select the areas you want to edit, and then reducing the saturation of that selection to the desired level. If needed, a small brush can be used afterwards, to apply the finishing touches.
