arthakkers mind control! HDR photograph
So, i took this shot at Norwich Cathedral and was happy with it, but in a rush as i always am in certain photographic situation, i hadn’t noticed the woman in the Red on the left or the guy in Black further up were “in the way” so i decided to keep them in as they looked like they were under some kind of zombie mind control from the powerful sphere!
How did i edit this image?
I used 2 x Photomatix versions to create this one. One version REALLY over cranked for that grungy dark feel of the Cathedral and the lights, i turned micro-smoothing right down to get the textured stone looking really grimey and old. I then created a “normal” Photomatix version for the sphere itself. I then painfully brushed through in Photoshop with a layer mask every separate part of the sphere to make it pop-out in the final version!
