[MENTION=39722]sujoyp[/MENTION]- Glad you liked the tiger.
I like marvelousprashant's version too. Somehow reminds me of ArmA.


I'm gonna post a out of camera jpeg here for you guys to give it a shot.
I wanted to have a gloomy & dark mood look on this photo, I made an attempt and posted it on the photography thread #9483.

So instead of keeping it simple, can you guys try out a couple of things
1 - Please try a gloomy & dark mood effect.
2- Try something you think will look the best on this photo OR a natural look.

Welcome to the Zone, STALKER.

I was working for this one "dark and gloomy" last night. Suddenly this short film came to my mind. Kinda a felt like the tone I am working (and the genre suggested by gen) are similar to this movie (or atleast that is what I was thinking )

Some may feel that the link doesn't fit the thread. So I am putting it in spoiler.

Spoiler

There is English sub. So don't worry that you won't understand the language).

Did any of you guys watch it??

- - - Updated - - -

I am almost complete.

It's kinda little overdone. It was fun doing it. Checking tutorials how to do the things and ditching it in the mid way as it was beyond my expertise and continue from where I left the things I know. It was a loooong processing should I say manipulation???

It's a crazy editing. I will post it in an hour or so...

There is not lot of light in the picture. It's better to view in TDF dark skin (theme).

You guys did really nice work...
Final image looks awesome...
But I would say it image manipulation and not post processing.

 

[chitvan]

[sujoyp]

[MENTION=125321]nac[/MENTION] - That's an awesome edit.

Broken building effect looks cool too. The overall tone of them pic is totally super..

 

[sujoyp]
