The contrast is badly adjusted. And why are there two light sources ? The right side of the render is darker so it doesn't need a light source. I don't like the idea of C4D's being in front and back.

I will fix it tom....however, I will keep the two c4d's where they are. Thanks for your input though. Good night everybody!......zzzzzzzzzz*

DeX- No, it's not photo manipulation. You're not making it look like an illusion or a scene, so it's not.

This is photo manipulation.

Can someone help?

Here are some of my best:


I made most of the backgrounds.

Also, I don't like to have just 1 focal point.

Anyone?

I agree with Noodoo , it is not a manipulation. Blurring can be done with a camera , I can do it.
A Photo Manipulation is like this :

Orginal stock :

Manipulated stock :

@DFB3636
Too many focal points is a no-no, if you like it or not.
A lot of the text in the sigs are too distracting.
That's all I can think of, as of right now.
Dex, that's not photo mani.

Noodoo, that's not photo mani.

Wolverine, that's barely photo mani.
@DFB3636 : If you want too use too many focals , then blur out the other focals so you can define out the focal point more. Your tags are over contrasted and they don't use any basics.

I say "no," it is not edited. There is a completely natural way to do that. It just takes practice with a camera.

well, correct.

BUT it was an amazing job. the photographer (inexperienced, actually) was moving while taking it. I actually thought it was manupilated, but I remember the time when she( yes, the photographer is a girl) said I was a bit blurry, so it wasn't manupilated(AND i was the GFX dude, not them)

How can it not be photo manip ? The creator changed the look of that man.
It's barely photo manipulation because the only thing manipulated is his coat collar. The other stuff would just considered editing.

This is my first attempt with Photoshop, I know it sucks. I'm still a beginner with CS5, so don't go ape on me.

Don't do this often, but CnC please?
The cutting isn't all that well on Wolborg... I like that effect you did with the Bit...
Could possible use a border (I'm not really nit-picky on that) and in all, it's just kinda empty on both sides.

I would look at some tutorials here, that's how I learned to get my way through Photoshop CS5 Grin
Thanks man, I'll read it over when I'm done with this DBQ. (Y)
What the heck happened after a day of an entrance exam?

I still don't like it , the colors are eh. Work more on your effects. The lighting is OK I guess though.
Simple. looks like no work is into it. seems like you did it in 15 seconds

Edit : smudge is a simple thing but you can give more dept and change the layer properties to give it a more dept color
@Fathom : Smudging can't be done in 15 seconds ...
Aura : It looks way too simple and no effects in it at all. Use the burn and dodge tool , the shades of the smudge are the same. Blend in your render more. Also try doing a better smudge next time , the smudging is plain and doesn't have any flow or depth at all.
