Corey,
Bravo.
Go figure just found this site.
Even after 15 years using and making a living with PS I still
enjoy the new things to be learned.
I agree . . . some of my best effects have been through experimentation.
thanks again.

Cool. Very nice technique.

I’m just editing my daughters 1 year birthday party photos so her hairs on fire

That’ll be one to show her when she turns 18. “Oh Yeah, it was a big thing in 2008 to get this gel which burned cold with a blue flame, like Xmas Puds. It was perfectly safe” I’ve got 17 years to master keeping a straight face right?

Was playing around with red gel filters last night and this has given me some ideas, perhaps painting eyebrows with the flame layer. Or maybe a hint of flame in the pupils of the model.

Corey’s the man. It’s nice to see people do non-cheesy effect tutorials, from more of an artistic / design stand point, he’s definitely an asset to NAPP for sure. You can put as many effects & layer styles as you want on something but it doesn’t mean it looks good. Keep up the good work man. Props to all the Photoshop User / Layers TV guys too.

Corey -

Thank you so very much for this refreshing, inspiring post. This is, to me, what NAPP and Ps are all about. It appears that so many are embracing Lr and photography (which is fine!) that Ps and creativity from the ground up have been taking a back seat. And yes, perhaps if my photography wasn’t so horrendous I’d be less inclined to miss the older days of NAPP. …Dare I say… (ducking) The pre Lr days. (disclaimer, yes, I use and love the software – love tinkering in the develop module!).

Having said that, I find everyone at and affiliated with NAPP to be so hugely talented, inspirational and encouraging, it really gets me fired up to create! And yes, to try and be a better photographer (1000 Thank Yous to Scott for inspiring that with his Hartford Seminar, wild man energy and enthusiasm).

I love and envy the great photographers that have become household names in my life since joining NAPP, “Scott,” “Joe,” “Moose,” “Jill,” “Vincent,” “Kevin,” “Martin,” “Jerry,” “David” – Ok, this was a bad idea to try to list – there are too many! But the Ps wizardry of Bert Monroy, Russell Brown, Mark Monciardini, Deke, …And Mr. Barker are what really blow me away. And yes, another bad idea to try and list these talents.

I hope I’ve not stepped on any toes, just wanted to toss my humble little opinion in – when I become a better (much better) photographer and live in Lr, feel free to let me have it!

Finally, I agree with Paulo, I’d love to see a thorough (a la Lynda.com video as they’re usually very in depth and long) DVD release on Ps creative techniques by the you, Mr. Barker!

Kind Regards!

Doug

Thanks for the wonderful article today, I definitely like the idea of ‘creativity farming’ and I’ll have to give it a try. Thanks for the video as well!
