Manipulation!


I wanted to combine all the recent techniques I have been using into one photo and see what I could come up with.
I wanted to use:
Additional lighting via PS
Textures
Different background to increase the perceived depth of the photograph.

This is the photo I started with




And this is what I ended up with.
For me these manipulation are more about the journey than the destination. I learn so much every time I try. Doing this is kind thing is like reverse engineering the photo, it give me a chance to subtract and add lighting and accent or hide whatever you want. It makes me think about lighting from a different prospective and hopefully I can become a better photographer because of it.
