Gasket and Tappet go artsy!

Fun with Photoshop 1 - Gasket and Tappet as fashion models:

They are great photos!!! How did you do them??? My bunnies are both very dark so they never look too good in a photo - any tips???

All mine are dark too and always just turn out looking like black blobs with no eyes :?

Aww brill pics!

Excellent! I love the second one, they look so relaxed munching

Black bunnies photograph best when there is lots of light so try outside on a sunny day.

Thanks all for the kind words. I used my Sony Cybershot DSC-P50. Its a 2 Megapixel camera. I set it to, indoors, iso 100 and set the focus to 0.5 m rather than Automatic. Then I put up a white sheet as a background and tempted them into the shot with food. I also used flash. This was the result:





Then I used a filter in photoshop called "diffuse glow" to get the effect, I also cropped the images a bit and used the red eye tool.

More fun with photoshop:

Taps original:



Now in spooky glowing mode:



and now we invert the image to get a neon pencil crayon effect:



Another one of Taps:

Original:



Now using Accented edges filter:



Glowing edges with a subsequent Sumi-e brush-stroke filter:



and finally, we invert the above:



A couple of other fun shots:

This one converts taps into a drybrush painting:



And a glowing Gasket, just so as he doesn't feel left out with all this Taps attention.



Another filter I like is the watercolour one for my underwater shots. For example, I took these pictures of dolphins in Kenya:





Played around with them in MS photo editor and got these results:










Oops, think I got a bit carried away there! Sorry for the number of piccies!

awww cool

Hmm I might have a play about with my camera and try to set up a proper photo shoot rather than just try and snap the bunnies as they run past lol :lol: :lol: :lol:

wow! there great! found that so interesting, thanks for sharing! i really want to play about with my photos too, just don't seem to get the time! i shall try that diffuse low, really nic!

Thanks,

glad you like them. I've just sent a load off to be printed, it will be interesting to see how they turn out on paper.

Awwwwwwwww gorgeous bunnies & excellent photos.
Me & photoshop don`t get on but after seeing what you can do i might have another try.
