    Input please.

    I have been playing around with this photo today and was wondering what you all thought of it.

    Original


    Altered A


    Altered B


    Also if you like it and would like something like this done to one of your pictures just let me know and I will see what I can do.

    Thanks

    A looks pretty good. And Yes, It would look better if his leathers weren't gray.

    Also thin him down a little, i heard the camera adds 10lbs but he needs a little more help.

    Thanks everybody for your help on this. I was hoping by making the background black and white that it would put more interest onto the bike and rider making the colors stand out more. I will continue working on this and post up what I come up with.


    Thank you everybody.

    Here's a website with shots to give you some ideas...

    http://www.witchkraftracing.com/

    On the main page, it will change. His bike stands out great in color, without everyone else in B&W. On track and in the pits, very cool effect...

    Let it sit for 10 seconds, it will change images...

    That's easy, just put me next to #95 and I look a lot faster.

    Jim, if you can do that, I'll buy a TON of pictures! Literally.

    Seriously, can you put anything in the background - more than recoloring?

    Hey Jim,

    When doing isolations I've found it helps a bit to bump the contrast to get better separation. Also watch for color casts, there was a bit of a magenta shift in the red. Below is an example with the changes...

    Wow Scott, that red really comes out in your rendition. I really haven't done much as far as changing up colors but I will have to change that now.

    Thanks

    Jim, what are you looking for as far as changes in the background? Right off the top of my head I can change colors (of course) I can make it a lot blurrier (that might be mispelled) among quite a bit of other things. Let me know what your looking for and I will see if I can do it for you.

    Thanks
