Looking Out to Sea

 

Roy and Bonnie

 

The Tower

 

The Big One

[Black Pearl]

First one for me - lovely bleak feel to the shot accentuated by the colours and the lone figure.

[Terry]

Definitely number  for me too. Nice set

[Ryewolf]

It;s a great set, but I keep coming back to look at #4, it's my favourite.

[Kobione]

Great set, Korky - love all of them - thanks for taking me back there.

[ChrisLumix]

all of them for me

Excellent  set ... However did you get Blackpool with no one THERE!! .All very different but got your stamp all oer them .. Lovely sharp lines contrast make #1 very graphic with curves and straight lines/angles

#2 is a  great study of one man and his dog ... the relationship  is obvious . a fabulous capture of a special bond.

#3 A super use of negative space with  so much empty blue sky ...  the innovative angle , the positioning of the ferris wheel   and the tower ensuring that it could only be Blackpool  and not any old seaside  place...

#4 Dynamic and full of movement without a soul in it of even a car on the big  one .and beautifully composed. One of your best sets  for me Lord K .... memorable  stuff ...  hats off to ya  ,ma friend !

The Big One for me! Even though the whole set is great, and the one where you fell up the steps came out quite well.

Now,............. you might be able to help me. I've been looking for a preset or instructions to achieve a line drawing effect and this one comes pretty close to what I had in mind. Is there any chance of you sharing this recipe. Most of the ones I've found so far are not very convincing but #4 has great appeal to my eye.

All great, but three and four are my favourites.......love the quirky angles of three and the graphic qualities of four.

Well, well..... I get up on a boring' ol' Friday with just nowt but a morning of chores in front of me and I find all these nice comments. Thanks, everyone, you've brightened my day.

I did 'The Big One' with Topaz Impression and a little preset I invented myself. That sounds very grand, but the truth is I played around until I found something I liked the look of and then I saved it as a preset. Once back in PS, I converted to mono then give the image a blue shadows thingie. Job done!

Topaz Impression is available as a free trial if you want to give it a wazz. I'm not sure if I can export my preset, but if I can I'm happy to let you have it. I'll explore further.

BTW - I didn't just fall up the steps, that's an artistic rendition of falling up the steps. So there!

Nice set Korky, interesting take on the 'Tower'

Thanks, Korky.............every little helps and I'm finding that my tipf'er friends are being very helpful. I love photoshop but spend too much time there.

Confucius once said......better to fall up steps than down them!     Why he said that I have no idea!
