Photoshop Tutorial: Snapshot

Postby Pure_Graphix on Fri Jul 22, 2005 9:07 pm

Start with an image where you would like to focus on one part of the picture. Here is the one I picked.

Image

Use the Marquee tool and make a selection around what you would like to focus on. You can leave it like this, or go to Select-Transform selection, and turn it a bit in either direction.

Image

Apply the transformation and copy it to a new layer, ctrl+J.

Right click the new layer - Blending options. Add a drop shadow, stroke, and a bevel if you wish. OK.

Image

Make the original image black and white by hitting ctrl+shift+u.

Image

Add some noise from Filter-Noise-Add Noise, to make the selection stand out a little more.

The Final.
Image

I'm sure you guys could come up with a better background effect, so try it out, and post something cool.
