Tin Dancers

**sparkster** · 1st January 2006

Took these at a place called Ironbridge, Shropshire. they are called tin dancers, similar thing to morris dancing.

the first one i had a play with selective colouring, and also had to reduce the noise slightly.

ISO 400,1/1000,f/4.2 @95mm

the black faces are to represent working in the tin mines, i added some brightness to the pic.

ISO 200, 1/1250, f/5.0 @70mm

strange EXIF data i know, cos i stupidly forgot to take it off sports, lol,

I do like the first pic, if they do any publications you might want to sent it in as I'm sure they would use it.

I think I'll have a play with the selective colouring now!

The top one is really good, great capture there mate.. Like Bugmonster said find out if there is such a publication and try and get it printed or something. Try "Peoples Friend", my nan used to read it and it contained loads of articles about such malarky..

Love the 1st one. I tried selective colouring once on a flower but it took ages and can't remember how to do it now lol

i have to aggree the first one is very impressive some well deserved karma coming your way

Nice pics mate, first one is my favourite aswell, i like how you edited it, really makes her standout and the colours are really vibrant. I can imagine this in some sort of arts/festival-ish magazine or on a poster or something. Nice job

Great pics but the first one shows, by the look on her face, that you do truly have to be bonkers to try something like this.

I find myself in agreement with everyone else, that first one really stands out, nicely done.

What are you using to reduce the noise ? I've tried a few plugins but I tend to use Noise Ninja the most now.

**sparkster** · 2nd January 2006

I used noiseware, was the first time i used it and was happy with the result.
