Spent last nite in the trustworthy hands of Vic, learning my way around photoshop! Thanks again, it all makes sense now, all this dodging and burning business LOL!
So I have decided to make a watermark to throw over my pics. So inspired by stencil and street art here it is:
And here is an example of it being put to good use. Even with a model standing on it and pointing it out in the chance you can't find it. Blurred faces have been used to protect the innocent and their silly antics.
And a few techinical specs for the people who are interested (Vic & Liz), I desaturated the original image, played with contrast and brightness to get the full black and white effect happening, added the crown that Vic prepared for me earlier lol, added some text and a speecho bubble and wah-LA! Slapped it on the pic using the multiply effect ;) Opacity is at ~40%, wanted to go less but its hard to make out on the grey sandy background. So I guess will have to change it all the time depending on the background of the photo. Started the watermark this morning and its finished as of 5.30pm! Using everything I learnt last nite :) Not a bad effort for a nooooooob who didn't know how to crop 2 days ago!
