Had to make a dock look better than the day they took the picture ... hadn't posted anything in awhile so I thought I'd give everyone something to look at - these are very low rez compared to the final images sorry ...

Tight! Well done. At the first go, you can't tell the difference! I had to look at both of them several times before I realized all you'd done! :thumb:

Haha thats awesome, you took out the entire back and replaced it. Looks a lot better than before, nice choice of background!

Great job!!!! It looks almost flawless!!! Can I make one suggestion? In the touch up, it's so sunny in the background that you might want to add a hint of light on the right side of the boat and the deck area. Do you know what I mean? Put it's a very clean.

Thanks guys - yeah I've gone through it a couple times and saw a few things here and there I would've liked to had done differently ... but it's already been printed and put out in their brochure so oh well. :thumb:

HAHA N1 Boon! :thumb:

devilsadvocate Couple lighting issues (posts, and the wood of the dock) could have been tweaked—however the photo is believable! Nice Job! :D

Looks good, size them down a tad and place them side by side. Makes comparing them a lot easier.

On the lighting issues I would agree, the original photo seems to have been shot on a very overcast day... so there are hardly any shadows. But on the manip it's a very sunny and beautiful day, some shadow and lighting work would have gone nice. Just small things to remember in the future since this one has already been printed.

Yeah - that would be something I saw later on ... and the biggest thing that bothers me ... damn the sun for being in the other photo and not in the first!:m:

Same as Sir Phoenix here. Had to look at them multiple times to tell the difference, but great job!

nice ...yeah shadows would help and maybe that jacob sign post could have been twicked...but I like the funkiness you get from no shadows...its weird

also love the levels work you did

If you wanted to go NuTS you could have dodge more of the boat and make highlight that would have given it that bling bling look, but still love it greennyyyyyyy
oh my I am posting again, this is not good...doctor told me to stop..so compulsive..arrghhh awkward...
