Description Into the Pits off Tower Bridge,I wish the peeps in the background weren`t there on this one but they`d be a nightmare to clone out.


Thanks for looking and supporting,have a safe week

Nice one! As you say... But there's nearly always someone where you don't want them. Fortunately the eye is drawn directly to the people coming on down into the darkness

I am good at cloning, I removed all the wires on a deviation for "dingodave" on one of his photos (branches, trees, wires, over three hours working).
However, the problem I see here is that there is not enough "building" at sight as to clone it properly, at least not with my skills (I'm now wondering if that is possible at all, if someone with skills and just this material could). If you had taken a second shot without them on top, it would be easier!

Nevertheless, the shot is fantastic.
It has a slight coppery shine that makes it very attractive - besides the usual beauty of your perspectives, focus and composition...

Gorgeous, Jonathan, as usual !!

Damn,that is a lot of work M
I`m fairly good myself but it`s like you said,you need a good base anyway to clone from and there`s not enough vital information on that tower as it is,it certainly would be a piece of cake if I stopped and took another for sure

Thank you for the love and kind words my dear M

Obrigado Nuno,guy below asked the same Q so here`s the same answer,I got Nik Software plugins [link] installed into my CS4 and I`m pretty sure it`s a combination of a couple of their filters stacked on top of each other from their Color Efex Proβ„’ 3.0 range,used the same combo for this one if I recall [link]

I wish you hadn't mentioned the people in the background because they hadn't really bothered me until I read that.

Oh well it's still an excellent image with great light and textures.
