Artistic Screenshots

[Laughter]

My favorite thing to do is take screenshots.. so figured i'd touch them up a bit. Make them look all pretty and shiny!

they are very well done, but just a remark

dont overdo the blur, halfway through my eyes went ballistic for a sec trying
to comprehend whats going on XD

glows and darkness are perfectly matching each other. just tone down the blur a little bit

keep it up! love to see more (wallpapers!)

Greetz,

Awh thanks.. i'll try it. I really like the blur look though! :P

*keels your eyes*

The shots are amazing, blur isn't over done, it draws the eye to the focal point perfectly, anyone with their eyes bugging is trying to look at the wrong part of the picture instead of the whole. Over analyzing can be a problem. Well done!!

Here's my tip: Try setting the different distances apart with blur. (Much like a real camera would) Currently, some of the sharp parts extend do elements that are further or nearer than the main focus. (for example the walls in the distance are blurred, but sharp around your character, which immediately shows that the blur is ... artificial, for the lack of a better word)

It's a bit hard to explain what i mean exactly without a visual example, but i hope you get my point.

What software do you use for editing?

[Laughter]

Well all the ones that are blurred is because that is the feel I am going for.. to blur everything minus the focal point. I have like one non blurred one there.

That was the whole point to blur it like that. >.>

Nice.. Blur is what makes these screens look so nice.. Color correction is good too First one is my favorite by far.. Nice job, Perfect depth n_n"

[totinhas]

damn, nice

[Laughter]

Thanks all. >_> Just what I do when shards are down.. or I am waiting in queue for randoms.

I really like the 6th and 19th images. They're well done while not being overdone. Some of the effects were a lil too obvious, almost ruining the image for me (especially image 12). Rakanishu had some great advice for more. . . realistic? manipulations.

[Laughter]

Going to try a little something different not so blurry.

Also if anyone has some pretty screenies feel free to PM me them.
