I am a photographer and want to do something new like this
Has anyone ever tried this? I have CS3 and CS4 can I do this tutorial in either one of these?
I think I know, masking already stated to change on evry enterface ie face! Working with layer manupulation can sort your background too.
I LIKE this tut! Can't wait to give it a try!
I wanted to share a link for goldfishes if anyone is interested:
