First photo manipulation comp

[ChrisHPZ]

Seems like I've been seeing a lot of photo manipulation here lately, so I figured on doing something with some of my photos. This is just a simple 2 picture comp with some masks and adjustment layers applied.

LOL I thought you were going to recreate the song Stairway to heaven in picture form but then I noticed it was a bridge.
Good job keep it up

Only critique it looks a bit skewed

 

[ChrisHPZ]

LOL!! My Mom said it reminder her of that song as well. I did skew the bridge a bit to give it the 2-point perspective I was going for. Perspective has never been a strong point with me. Sometimes I can nail it perfectly in my work, other times I fail miserably.

Cool.

It looks like you used the perspective option rather than skew on the bridge. Are you sure it was skew? You should be able to stretch it out a little without distorting it too much.

You're right agent, I did use perspective and not skew. I stretched it out as far as I could without noticeably distorting it. Even with the content aware tool, there is some distortion that happens. I wasn't really going for "precedent setting" work here or anything, just wanted to mess around with some of my photo's.

That looks like an amazing slide! I think the erased area on the left of the bridge look's a bit weird.

 

[ChrisHPZ]

Yeah, I'm a weirdo so its appropriate
