(Keep in mind my system is down and I'm working on a laptop. IE, No post work) Ok the idea I had was to have smoke coming out of the bottle, but the lighting was too overpowering for the smoke to be seen. so I'm super imposing smoke after. What do you all think, is it a sound idea? -Gabe-

yes, this rocks. Samara rocks. ...somehow, lights seems to be bit flat? Is it just my monitor or what? But, anyway, great shoot. .n

They work together well! Do some more!

Very nice execution! Now try a pin light on the glass piece over the left shoulder. There is a double amount of beauty in this image. Your work is going to make a good portfolio image for both Samara and the glass. A trace of smoke or fumes would be worth the effort.

I dunno, but something about Samara doesn't look right. Did you cut her out of a pic and put her here or something? I'm assuming ya did, but well, something looks odd abou the edges of her profile, i dunno, I'm prolly just yammering again, pay no attention to my direction. ry

Hmmm - she really jumps out of the pic doesn't she? Probably just me, but my eyes don't want to rest, just keep darting from one to another. apart from that, well cool. Not sure about the smoke idea though - I'd probably make it slightly, erm, unusual and put a little alien there - IMO that would look REALLY funny, and give it a definite focal point to rest my eyes.....lol Keep it up!!

Hi guys, well you all can see this beter than I I'm sure considering that I'm on a laptop screen and havent goten photoshop installed, but there are a bunch of peaces that I jsut got that I want to use with her. I find it funny, the glass is so beautiful, but she just makes it look ordinary. Antoon, phrank and bill, Thanks, I'm planing on posting a few others of her with this peace ASAP, but need to replace my server's motherboard, and ran out of the slush fund tis month, so It's been hard to arange for the new board. so please be patiant. I'm dying to see this on a real screen Jordy & Slink, I'm not sure, as I said before, my system with the real monitor is out of comition and I'm working on getting it up and running again. I'll be plugung in my laptop to the screen later and see if I can get a better look. As for the outline... It was shot live, and there was no modifications to the image what so ever, I am using tungston lights, and, havent had the chance to color corect in photoshop yet. The edges are probiably because I used "Photoshop LE" insted of image ready to shrink it down which I think doesn't do as nice a job. Thanks all, I'll get more up ASAP. -Gabe-

Personally, I just enlarge my pics to full screen, and do a screen capture, then save as jpeg for my stuff on renderosity. Saves time I find, depepneding on how large the file is.

Hi Alpha, Well I am in the prosses of super imposing the smoke now, so, let see how it works, if not, I don't mind having to get her infront of the camara for a re shoot. :8^) -Gabe-

I'll bet you don't mind!! lol (just jealous) (",)
