This is a different type of artwork for me, but I really enjoyed the process of taking and manipulating an action sports shot. I just got access to a nice digital camera, and I just finished going through many hours of Photoshop training, so I am looking forward to really getting into digital photography. This is the first serious work I've done with Photoshop. Of course I cropped and did some color balancing, but the mostpart of my work was in selectively masking three layers of blur to simulate depth of field. I love the wide format so much, I originally added the black borders just to make it printable as a 4x6, but I actually think they look pretty good. All in all, I am proud of this first image, and I'm really looking forward to getting more involved with Photoshop and digital photography.
Thank you! Like I said in the comments, this was one of the first times I had ever seriously used Photoshop, so I was very happy with how it came out. It's one of those I never got around to printing, because I keep making small edits here or there; so I may never be happy with it but I'm glad you like it

This newsletter was "born" back in March 2007, from a conversation between ~Lareth and =FrozenStarRo, who with the help of their friends *Iardacil and =Sylwiaa , wanted to make something to promote known and unknown photomanipulators alike here on DeviantArt. As of September 2009 =ImaginaryRosse joined the project and will be helping us out with the weekly choices. While things have changed over time, the essence of the newsletter is still the same. As of recent, the talented =Behana has joined us in bringing you this weekly newsletter and we are excited to have her on board. This is a special feature, with a selection of 50 manips from the past year that we loved.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
