>>3292326>>3292641Final attempt. I need to find another picture to practice on before my eyes go crossed. I kind of want to do another and dial a couple things back just a smidgen, but for the most part I'm liking the way it turned out. It's a really nice picture to edit; lots of stuff that can be tweaked (though they don't necessarily need it). I do like minimalism, but it isn't as fun to play with after the fact.
Just wondering if this is still too processed? I can easily see all my edits, because I've been staring at them for a couple days now (off and on), so I can't tell whats too much anymore, lol.
Process:
>Did a little work on her teethMostly just brushed the saturation back up where the gums were supposed to be. This was the issue with the original poster's edit. I also added a tiny highlight to accentuate their shape, and brushed a little tiny amount of blue into their shadows though it doesn't show much (got the idea from looking at pictures of white teeth on google images).
>used an auto colour enhance filterI wouldn't suggest using this. I've used it on other pictures and it is usually way too much colour. It just happened to only really effect the flowers in this picture and I kind of liked the way it looked (might be a little too much now though; I can't decide).
>bumped the image's colour temp upFor anyone using the GIMP 2.10's new colour temp filter I'd suggest using the option menu that drops down if you click the arrow beside the sliders. It made it a lot easier to get basically what I was looking for.
>hued the yellow leaves towards green, desaturated green and yellow (yellow was desaturated a lot less than green), and darkened both a touch as well.Just wanted the leaves to contrast both the flowers and the models face a little more. Couldn't (and didn't want to) get the foreground leaves all the way to green though (pushing it really far caused issues with the overlap on the magenta flowers; you can still sort of see it now).
