Fooling around with Photoshop

I haven't the first idea what I'm doing with PhotoShop but I decided to take a crack at messing up one of my photos from France. We went to Pere Lachaise, the giant necropolis where many luminaries are buried, and I tried to take some photos that could be construed as creepy with the proper modification. It was hard to get a creepy photo on a sunny warm day but oh well!

Crypts

Yes I know it's totally amateur. :)

Hmm.. I would be curious to see what the original looked like. Maybe you need some *strange* shadow, or unexplained light--around one of the crypts.

Looks good to me. Photoshop is addictive. I must mess with it at least once a day. :-)

Agreed.. PS needs messing around with at least once a day LOL !

I like it. The shadows are precise and the balance b/n shade and light is good, not too sharp and not too weak. And I like the look of it when you turned it. It actually reminds me of the end scene of "The Third Man" an old b/w movie.

I think just about anything black and white looks creepy. *grin* Ain't I helpful?
