Album cover

Album cover

A possible cover for my next solo album... I actually made it pretty far into editing this one.. usually I lose interest... What do you think... Good enough for a cd cover??

Maybe add a little more contrast and some unsharp mask. Other than that perfect!

On what part sonya? me or the background... I am cut completly from the background.. the original pic was in bright,bright daylight. pasted back into it after the effects... That way I didnt lose quality.. what do you use by the way photoshop, gimp, or some shit I aint heard of?? This is the next times cd cover by the way... minus the teddy brazello.. Same photo will span to the back with Dattoli on the front of my car.. When you open the case it looks like one picture

I have noticed your photo work... Sole looks better than he ever has...lol Seriously though... you good at takin pictures... Can you figure out what all I did to make it look like that?

Sonya's picture

Well you just need to add layer in order to erase the part you want to show. You did really good at that. I would say you added a blur to it. If you did add a blur, lower the opacity on that (in a new layer). I would run the contrast and unsharp mask on yourself. It will make you stand out more. And right now I use photoshop CS2. Though paint.net is a great free alternative.

By the way, thanks Teddy. Seems you like still remember me. That is good for my heart to know.

Its good .. do remember you always had alot of potentiial with music. Wouldn't expect anything less with photos... One track you made was close to the top in one of the competitions quite awhile back. though I do belive sole was also judging
...... seems allfully unfair.... soles gotta get laid....lol

Seriuosly though I was one of the judges.. I expect no less from anybody regardless of catagory or professsion... how much you charge for a photo shot... and is your camera digital... if so how many mp?

Sonya's picture

I am shooting free sessions right now to build my portfolio. I have a digital slr. 6 MP. Though I have to say, Mp isn't as important as people think.
LMAO...you have no idea how true that statement is!

Teddy Brazello's picture

Defintly.... this pic was taken with a cell phone.. but if you shot a pic with .01 mp its bound to look very. very bad. regardless of the editor.... about 3 to 6 is standard... Not much difference is seen there.

You seem to know your stuff Teddy. Now, I am off to get Sole laid. LOL! I need it just as much as he does. Maybe he won't see this!

The Sole's picture

Hey! hehehe heh. See Teddy I am pimpin' just like you bro! I bet the gas mileage bites with that car huh? Damn war on terrorism!

Teddy Brazello's picture

lol... did you have a good night last night sole? Yes gas mileage is horrible but worth it,, parts for my car are way cheaper than most cars.. Had to get the transmission replaced once... that was kinda expensive

The Sole's picture

That night was great! Nothing like getting woken up in the middle of the nice with a nice-................................... hahaha! There could be teenagers reading this and I don't wanna give any ideas! :0) How much was the transmission?
