Chiado (enhanced)

After some friends contribution I've tried to enhance the Chiado photos.

Mannequin: Duplicate layer; Blend mode = multiply; Add Layer mask; Gradient tool from white to black starting at about the middle of the picture to bottom edge



Tuna: Duplicate layer; Blend mode = multiply (opacity = 30%); Crop

  1. Hi Carlos,
    You can really see the improvement in the top one. The contrast really helps & I can see detail in the street & sidewalk. It looked like a thin covering of snow on the sidewalk before.
    Same with the bottom one - contrast, richer color - & good cropping.
    Very nice job.
    Paul

  2. Yes, agree with Paul, particularly the cropping in for the tuna.
    I can't stop long to comment, because estou à afogar em trabalho, vais ver no meu post de hoje!
    I wish I could come with you on Thursday, what a lost opportunity, but it's work-work-work for now. Take care!

  3. Both look remarkably better - great job. I dno't really understand the whole duplicate layer / multiply thing - I have to read that chapter in my photoshop book and do some experimenting!
