Scott Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Easiest way to do that is to have the camera on a stand. Take a photo with the bonnet down at the desired angle and then take the same photo with the bonnet up. Pretty easy to do the rest if you do it that way. If you don't have a stand big enough, have someone help. Stay as still as you can (I know its not that easy) and take a pic with the bonnet up. Get them to quickly put the bonnet down and take a picture as similar as you can to the previous one. Some camera's have a ghost mode where you can overlay the previous picture.

Thorin Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) Yup, you need better photo's as Scott suggests. If these are to be printed out then you're probably best posting the full size images too.

Lbm Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Keep your bears and top hats away Thorin. As above, it would be better to have an identicle shot of bonnet up and then down. As Scott says use a tripod etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Keep your bears and top hats away Thorin You know me too well. Perhaps if it were discrete, say sat in the passenger seat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Mitchell Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 ok mate cool, i might know someone who can help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 That is a very easy thing to do, and I have done one of mine, but as others have said, you will need a bonnet down pic, and a bonnet up pic using a tripod, as getting the angles correct is imperative. Unfortunately, my pic's on my laptop at home, so I can't show you at the moment. I'd be quite happy to come along and take a couple of shots for you and do it, maybe this weekend if the weather is fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 its easy with those 2 pictures, ill have a go later if nobody has, as i don't have PS on my mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Just a quick one, but having to skew the image makes it look a little forced, so would be better with some better photos, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R3DG3CKO ROB Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Wayne, Check what type of file type the printing company needs as we used one company that wanted specific file types which we couldn't create correctly via Photoshop. If they're happy to accept a Jpeg then don't worry it's just that some companys use vector based graphics to print each colour at a time...

supradibbs Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 Dammmmm ric thats awesome could you do just a little more to it maybe enlarge the pis slightly thats almost perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Cheers guys I could enlarge it yeah but the image is already borderline pixelating, making it bigger is just going to make the problem worse could really do with higher quality pics from similar angles if you want to goto town on the image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Are you coming to the SRR day on Sunday mate? My mate has a DSLR camera with large tripod and he's coming with me he's not bad on photoshop either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 for it to look propper the 2 pictures need to be in the exact same position. or as close as you can get. and nice big files.
