    I kinda like the image. The wrinkles might be a bit much, but the processing otherwise is pretty good for me. Is the guy facing off against a storm?


    Could you please tell me more about what you did (both taking the photo and PP.)

    Thanks for posting!

    I can already hear the movie trailer announcer guy
    In a world
    Scarred by war

    One man stands alone
    against the elements

    His family already dead
    he now must contend with

    the zombie horde

    I'm not sure whether or not take that seriously mmroden eek7.gif! It was funny though. But, I really like your use of textures and/or brushes here to destroy the image a bit. This works for me!clap.gif

    I like the shot and post processing. <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/thumb.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" >

    <CUE heels.... his at nipping zombies climbs, he as in Close Stand. Last make to tree, the heads He horizon. way all see back Pan face. on look intent field, across running him of shot drums, taiko>

    I was also thinking this. In some ways, the image is a let down, as there is only this tree the man is facing and not a zombie horde!

    That's odd, I actually see the Zombie Horde....headscratch.gif

    Seriously, I like it a lot.

    Very nice. Would you share some of your processing details?

    Wow, that's got a real 300 feel. I would like to see it without the wrinkles, but I'd also like a clue as to how you get that 300 dystopian look. I love it!

    On most of my shots I use one couloured startimage, duplicate it and use the Channel mixer "monochrome" function to turn the shot B&W. Then I use either overlay, Darken or Multiply on that layer (It doesnt work on all shots but you have to try a bit) other than that I added a structure to get the lines to the shot..hope this helps a bit...

    That does, THANK YOU. That is an amazing yet apparently simple effect. I love your work!
