These 22 Images Were Photoshopped And We Just Don’t Care

Very few of us, as photographers, don’t use Photoshop to do even the most minor of corrections. Essentially, we’re all Photoshoppers, correcting color, shadow and highlight detail, removing minor skin blemishes and cropping, but these 22 images were all Photoshopped beyond what most wold deem normal corrections. They aren’t wrong for being ’shopped, better or worse, just different and enjoyable.

In the comments, show up off your Photoshop skills!

Do You Recognize These Famous Places in Tilt Shift Photos?

Tilt Shift photography is an increasingly popular pastime among people looking for original shots of overdone subjects. While tilt shift gives real subjects a quality that makes them look more like scale models than real places, the popularity of the technique is growing and growing. The thing is, sometimes it can be difficult to recognise real places when they have been rendered in tilt shift photos. That’s why we thought we would test you!

Of course, as usual, if you would like to know how to emulate tilt shift photos like these, look for our resources section at the end of the post which will take you to some great tilt shift tutorials on the web.

Let’s see how many of these real places you can name! Let us know your score in the comments.

13 Eerie Photos of Gargoyles & Grotesques

Choosing interesting topics to shoot is one of the obvious keys of photography, but turning interesting subjects into awesome photos is easier said than done. This selection of cool Gargoyles and Grotesques, we think, makes that transition.

As you might expect with any set of photos of Gargoyles, black and white imagery has a fairly prominent place in this set. Something about the Gothic subject matter makes it almost obligatory. But you might be a little surprised at the eeriness of the colour photos in the set. We thought they were more than worthy of inclusion too.

Some of these shots also had a helping hand with Photoshop and we’re sure you will agree that the artists did a pretty good job of bringing out the haunting feeling of the subject.

As always, if you think you know of some photos that deserve to be mentioned in this company, please leave a link in the comments!
