    ahhh yes, that definitely gave me WHITE white white lol interesting, I will have to play with that. I've decided to give another shot a try since I'm going cross eyed looking at these two haha we'll see who this goes.

    Need Pure White Background with Shadows

    Good to know. When I re-opened, I didn't open in ACR though. Just started my post work on a JPEG heh. I'm still struggling to get the whites "WHITE", but I got a bit better on this image that I was messing with. It still isn't white though :(

    Need Pure White Background with Shadows

    well, I opened the image in RAW, then saved it as a JPEG, then re-opened it to edit it later. Dumb move. Either way, yes I have some major stuff to learn about RAW :) Thank you for the help!

    Need Pure White Background with Shadows

    you know, that's probably where I went wrong. Somewhere along the way, It ended up in JPEG, so I have just been damaging the pixels.

    Need Pure White Background with Shadows

    Thank you. Yes, these are shot in RAW. When I saved, they were saved in sRGB. I guess I can play with the settings in RAW further. Although then the entire left side of the image is yellowish and will again look weird on upload.

    Need Help w/ Smoke Effect

    I brightened up the gas mask shot a bit, and after watching a great tutorial on colors, did some work on another shot. I spent some more time HOPEFULLY making the smoke more realistic on her cigarette. baby steps I guess! :) I think this shoot was good to get my feet wet again both with my own...

    Need Help w/ Smoke Effect

    very good point. i suppose understanding how smoke works is a wise way to approach it first ;) IAmSam - Sorry you don't approve of this particular content. I've had that mask laying around for over a year, and after 8 months of nothing but wedding photos, I had to do something waaaay on the...

    Need Help w/ Smoke Effect

    Sure. That's fair. i still enjoy the darkness of it. I think most mask imagery of any kind has been beat to death. People either love it...or they don't :)

    Need Help w/ Smoke Effect

    Thanks IAmSam! the hair transparency is actually on camera. I shot this on a 6 second shutter and she sat up while the shutter was open. I was actually hoping it would give the illusion of her moving slowly / ghostly but we didn't quite get that lol oops. ill definitely work on the transparency...

    Need Help w/ Smoke Effect

    This is what i came up with. The embers weren't working for me :( they just looked too fake. Not sure where i was going wrong, but I need realistic. (probably why i've never dived too far into digital manipulation. I HATE fakey looking work.)
