WEEK #9

[Jupiter]

Alright this is my first week doing this so give me feedback! Did you like the image? Did you hate it & why? This image will be up until next Monday. I will try to do an even mix of renders & stock photos. Just remember to be creative & have fun guys!

Maybe because Im a noobie but for me stock images are soooo much harder than renders but Im up for the challenge =) I have done a million render tutorials cant find much to help me with stock images. In the one i tried for this week i cut her out myself but no matter what i did she looked blurry. Anyone know anything that can help me with stock images?

what program are you using? and alot of the time with stock images you should just put your effects on the area around the focal. dont bother with cutting them out. the background of the stock can usually have a nice addition to ur effects
