Needing your opinions..

[msabas]

I am working on a new action. I like to know what your opinions are on this new one.

Image on the left is original and right is applied action.

Hey Mariano!

I think that it's a little warm for my taste, but that's just me. my feelings may be influenced by the original....

But if I were editing this image and it looked like the post action, I would being down the color some. But, like I said, this is just my opinion.

it's a little too warm for me too - is her shirt black..or blue..

[msabas]

thanks for the feedback so far.. but yes the shirt is blue and it is a bit warm i will work on maybe cutting back on it.

On my monitor she looks orange.

I think it would look good B/W. Just a thought.

I don't know what you were trying to do man, but you took a lovely portrait of a young lady with a good tonal range and soft colors and made her look orange, rugged and muddy. The blacks are blocking up way too much and the tonal range has been shot. I think you need to start over with this action.

I was trying to go warm with this but i think i went too much, I am going to trash it and start over.

mariano - it is a very nice photo - when you said the original was on the left, had you already done some post on it - her skin looks really smoothed over somehow. if you had 'edit my pics' turned to yes, perhaps people could help a bit with advice on the post-p

Yes I had already done post work on the original photo then i just began to play with tones fills..etc..

I will see about adding the make edits to my photos.

I think part of the issue is that you are starting with a photo of someone who already has a nice golden tone to their skin. Try testing the actions on some paler folks.

I like what it did to the background, but I agree, it makes her too orange now. I feel like creating some actions now too.

Well i have been playing with it still and I changed the opacity and fill levels and it makes it look a bit better, I will post a updated image soon.
