Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

Hi Guenter,

How do you get the background like that, I guess you use Photoshop, but how?? Very Happy

Again, the same with the green mamba, very nice work, but how did you do it?

Cheers,

Dave

Dave,

Here the BG was reddish but as blurred as You can see here (I used a 150/2.8 Macro with aperture around 9 or 10 here).
What I did in Photoshop was to use a colour/saturation layer to get all green and then I used a layer mask to remove this effect from the snakes and the ground. Took 30min, I had to do this accurately.

The Mamba was much easier. Just used a "Curves" layer and darkend the picture extremly and then roughly removed this darkening effect by means of a layer mask from the snake.

Everything else was usual postprocessing:
Levels
Curves
Saturation
sharpening
framing
