The Ride! Yee HA
Uploaded: May 13, 2005 06:26:59
You'all asked if he got his ride?? Well...... Here it is! He was a very very happy boy! :o)
Although this is probably not a typical entry for a digital darkroom photo I felt that it was fitting. There are five different filters used on this photo to achieve this soft yet tough look including but not limited to: warming filter, vitality filter, and soft posterization filter. I desaturated the photo and tinted it. I cloned out the leads hand from the bottom right of the photo and reconstructed the horse using other parts of his hair and bridle.
