KimMoore Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Hi Damien, If I want to create something similiar to the picture below, with my picture attached. Do I keep reading the advanced black & white's course? https://irisawards.com/2023-iris-awards-galleries/2023-animal/#foogallery-32406/i:38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Your link takes me to a page with dozens and dozens of photos. Which one are you looking at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Come on Kim, read the posting guidelines again. Pay particular attention to number 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimMoore Posted June 18, 2024 Author Share Posted June 18, 2024 I understand that. But recently I asked you how to do this in another post, I will find it & you suggested I read the advanced black & whites module on how to do it,it was with a cow. So I was checking would this be the same technique? https://ask.damiensymonds.net/topic/63305-black-background/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 I am not even entertaining this nonsense. If you can't see how COMPLETELY different the lighting is in your photo, compared to the linked image, then perhaps photography isn't the pursuit for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 Well? Have you found a suitable example photo for us to work with yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KimMoore Posted June 19, 2024 Author Share Posted June 19, 2024 I'm struggling to find one frontlit. https://photos.com/featured/horse-in-backlight-ryan-courson-photography.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 That's sidelit. You're getting closer. But still not backlit like yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you tell me what gives you reason to think that this photo was taken outdoors like yours was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimMoore Posted June 19, 2024 Author Share Posted June 19, 2024 The light is falling behind the horse & maybe the shadows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 You really truly think that this photo was taken in front of a bright sunny field like yours was, and then the dark background was added later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimMoore Posted June 19, 2024 Author Share Posted June 19, 2024 I have no idea, but I am trying to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 Look, I have to go out soon. Can we PLEASE just fast-forward to the part where you acknowledge that the photo you're looking for doesn't exist, so we can get on with the sensible work of adding a light-coloured background to your horse photo?

KimMoore Posted June 19, 2024 Author Share Posted June 19, 2024 I haven't read that module yet. do I need to do this first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
