One of my best childhood memories

I used a lot of time getting this shot right, because i wanted it to look artistic and not just a snapshot of a toy.
Taken handheld in morning light + low light lamp.
Cross processed and selective grain removal.

Any fav and feedback is very appreciated

Hey love this photo Hope you don't mind if I link to this as a reference for a speedpainting group. The lighting is magnificent and would be great practice to recreate as a painting. All work will be credited to the original photo source.

How do you achieve this "softness"?

Here i used surface blur, then layer masks to paint in the effect on different areas in different strength

Hey, I've got one of those!

It looks like he's about to enter some kind of new frontier. Is it a new adventure? Saving Princess Peach? Going inside the doctor's office?

iamthemonkeyhead [2011-03-10 05:00:12 +0000 UTC]

I think the framing is too central and a bit of texture is lost in the post processing (unless everything really is that smooth and fuzzy). I faved the shot because it's very pleasant; beautiful colours and light; and I love gaming so this gets the nostalgia working.

But I would say for composition you should use the rule of thirds (I'm sure you know what I mean, if not, google).

The idea with a photo is to suggest a story or lead the eye and to place him a bit further right to the frame would suggest he is looking somewhere where the light is shining. By putting him centrally the image becomes static and you draw attention to the fact you're photographing a toy.

I hope that helps. Good work.

This is an awesome and epic photo. I love the sharp and crisp focus, the color treatment, the simplicity, every single bit about it! I really have nothing negative to say about this photo; I think it's one of those shots where you would really have to strain yourself to see anything negative about it, then again, that would be more of nitpicking than anything else. Awesome awesome shot, I wish I could take photos as well as you! Add fave definitely, hehe

Pharaoh-Ink [2011-03-09 15:32:09 +0000 UTC]

Despite it being a shot of a toy, what makes this actually interesting to look at is the clearness, quality of lighting, and the vibrant color you've managed to capture. Of course for me, it's nostalgic because I grew up on Nintendo and of course I recognize Yoshi and appreciate this moreso that someone who didn't grow up playing video games might. It has to be said though, for a picture of a toy, whether or not one is familiar with it, it's a nice picture.
