Touched up an old photo

Hope Ryan Stewart doesn't mind. I had this photo in my screensave and thought it was a great pic but needed some work. The lighting made everything in the foreground really yellow. I think I got it closer to true color.

Really good Pshop work, but I prefer the lighting in the 1st pic.

But...it all yellow. This is why professionals use filters when shooting in artificial lighting, you don't want it all yellow. It's urine vision!

I prefer the first as well. It is artistic! I don't think it was really ment to be realistic.

I agree with Derek and Kristin. The touched up one looks nice, but it looks just that, touched up. Good work though! :up:

You guys are on crack. The second one looks 10x better.

I think I need to darken the car a little bit, it looks like it's glowing now. That might help it not look touched up. Another problem is that it loses image quality when I save it as a jpeg.

the second one looks a little faded almost

That doesn't look realistic at all, you need to mess around with colour correction more.

LOL, i like the touched up one better.

2nd pic better.

2nd pic looks way better, first doesn't look artistic it just looks like it was taken under low pressure sodium lights--yellow
