At a bit of a loose end this afternoon, so thought I'd have a play with a photo. Started out with this:




Used Photoshop to:
  • remove the disabled parking sign;
  • change wheels to Serpents;
  • add a personal number plate.

Played around with focus levels and added a filter from Smart Photo Editor, then back to Photoshop to add some text. Finished up with this:



Quite pleased with the end result. I'd put it on the wall in the garage, but I don't have a garage.

Love it Cliff
I think you'd be able to sell these done with members cars.

No garage? Then hang it in the living room

I think the missus might have something to say about that.

I admire your work. I purchased a rather expensive program to edit my photos a couple of years back and have never used it.

I have done some minor editing using the PC when posting photos via Photobucket ,(yes remember them) onto the various forums.

Forgot to say, I've got two nice ones A3 size of my SD1 Vitesse hanging up in the conservatory, one of which shows it with just A & B pillars,roof and floor. Looks more like a beach buggy.

A pre pre-production model.

Thank you so much for spotting that. I'm thinking of having a print done and would be gutted to spot it afterwards.

Sounds interesting - you'll have to take a pic when you get a chance.

What time is it meant to show Cliff, as its showing the time to the second, shouldn't it be 'off' or 'on'?!

The time includes seconds, and yes, it should say "off", not "of". No problem, except I've just submitted a copy for print.

Time to make a quick phone call I think. Thanks for spotting.
