Jean-Benoît Maréchal from Dinant, Belgium
Terrible traitement, la ville semble recouverte de poussières de volcan... ;-)

@Jean-Benoît Maréchal: j'aime bien votre interprétation :-) Merci, Jean-Benoît.
@Ana Lúcia: Thank you very much, Ana. But it certainly is not perfect :-) You're too kind :-)
Mirko Herzner from Mühlheim am Main, Germany
As I am a huge fan of medieval settings this picture really catches me (I won't see the cars ;-)). This is so atmospheric. Great!

@Mirko Herzner: haha...i know..the cars. It's like: what's wrong with this picture? :-) But I don't want to remove or add things in a photograph. Only color and/or texture adjustments. Thanks, Mirko!
@Lorraine: :-) eh ben, ça me fait plaisir, Lorraine et je vous remercie!
Vink from Magagnosc, France
Superbe le traitement ! Une atmosphére très médiéval.

Pouhou from Apeldoorn, Netherlands
wow pas tres original mais c'est tres exactement ce que j'ai dit en découvrant cette photo,
pour moi le contraste est juste parfait,
Peux tu donner quelques details sur le process que tu as suivi pour controler de la sorte le contraste ?
Et encore bravo
10 Jul 2008 5:49pm
@Pouhou: Dankjewel, Pouhou! Par rapport le contraste, j'utilise des courbes avant de convertir la photo en mono. Après, j'ajoute des niveaux en 50% gris en mode de fusion 'soft light' sur lesquels j'applique 'dodge / burn' pour augmenter ou diminuer le contraste dans des zones specifiques de l'image.

DarkElf from Perth, Australia
superb mood and atmosphere here! it has a certain feeling of surrealism and decay... great colour tone selection!

@DarkElf: Thank you, DarkElf. Cheers.
@Don: Thanks. Took a bit of time since I'm pretty inexperienced with photoshop. But it's fun to do.

Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom
Een zeer dramatische foto, uitstekende beeld bewerking met een prima resultaat.

@Observing: merci, Observing. Vlaming of Nederlander in de UK? 'k denk dat dit mijnen eerste vlaamse (nederlandse) comment is :-)
MSD from Fort Washington, United States
Stunning!!!! What kind of processing did u use here?
3 Aug 2008 4:25am
@MSD: Thank you, MSD. Color correction first and next letting myself go to undo the color correction :-) For this one, basically, contrast via curves and dodge&burn for local contrast enhancements. And of course conversion to monotone.
