16bit GIMP has been promised for years and years. Put no faith, hope or aspirations on it until after it has been truly released.

Cool effect!

Nice work Tom.  I like the color correction.  I haven't converted or thought of doing lab colorspace corrections in a long time.  Good idea!  The resulting image is good but I'm curious about the...

That is some impressive work Claude, especially when realizing you worked with the reduced pixel and heavily modified first image. Edit: Well, it was heavily modified but on reviewing, I was wrong...

Thank you Art ... I very much appreciate the compliment!  It was a fun try on what is starting to be a very lazy saturday for me.

I thought your question would be a good challenge.  My best attempt.

Nice Job Vic!

I tend to do a lot of stack alignments in photoshop.  The auto-align usually works fine for me but everynow and then it goes wacky.  When this occurs, I set blend mode of the layers to difference...

That last one with the b&w blending looks good!

Too funny!

Mikes rendition got me to take a shot as well.

Looks good Mikes!  I think you just need to desaturate the warmed version a bit and you've got it.  I looked at my version on my work computer and was surprised to see grey/blue, zombified skin....

I think you're really close.  I think I'd try bringing back some of original eye as they got overly soft and maybe bring the hair back somewhat too?

I don't think we need to work on a great extraction for this exercise   However, like you, I found the darker background was needed in matching the Russian Photographers style.  I think your...

I'm not sure what you're showing us fft81?  The original poster is looking at how to achieve a look with portraits that a Russian photographer uses on his photos.  My impression is the photographer...

I like the image and your processing a lot.  Of the processing, I'd say the first is more to my liking.  For this image, I like more of a silhouette with the boats.  I didn't improve on your...

I'm sure the email won't have any effect or impression on the instigators but I thought your response was really funny!  :-)

I made an attempt at duplicating the look. Is it at all close? I used photoshop, duplicated layer, made top layer b&w, blended with soft light, combined. Then I played with curves to boost...

The relevant aspect of rad contamination is having it where you don't want it. There is also one very good component of radiation in comparison to other hazards and that is it's generally pretty...

From your description, virtually any point&shoot will suffice; however, the need for manual focus puts this into the higher $200+ models as virtually all economy models are auto focus only.  You’ll...
