SJ: Photoshop skills

Sometimes finding pictures for SJ is hard.  So I've been watching some photoshop tutorials in hopes of shopping some images to get what I want.

I am by no means an expert but I would still like "professional" level images or at least can make changes where you can't tell they were shopped.

Below are two images (after break).  I made one change in one of them.  Which image did I change?  What did I change?  How long did it take you to find it?

  1. First thought: the cheeks on the second one, because those do NOT look right.

    Second thought: the towel on the first one. It's a little too bright, it looks like it's held up by a velcro corner, which is not unbelievable but kind of odd, and the lighting it at the wrong angle. Her hair, chin, nose and eyebrows are casting shadows at 5 o'clock, lit by ceiling light, and the towel looks to be lit entirely from in front, by camera flash. Here eyes do not reflect a camera flash. There's a strange change in colour on the bulge of her breast, too, from darker where the swimsuit would cover it to paler above. Is this a head-swap image? On further staring, I think the towel's in sharper focus than her face, too, which is not an impossible mistake to make with a wide aperture from short range, but it looks more like two different image resolutions.

  2. I agree the top one looks touched up, but I would say the bottom one is our answer. The cheeks/jaw-line just don't look right.

  3. I thought it was a nude with a towel shopped on.

  4. I enjoyed the Youtube series "You suck at photoshop" for a humorous set of tutorials on various topics.

  5. There is a couple of obvious clues.
    The first image is named "Player-towel".
    The second image is named "tori-black-12202-01".
    Google Reverse Image search easily finds the second image, but have trouble with the first. It does however find an image somewhat similar to the first image but without the towel.

    The first poster's second thought is also somewhat correct. As far as I can tell, the only thing photoshopped in the first image is the towel.

    Everything considered, I don't think most poeple would notice that the first image is photoshopped, it's a fairly decent photoshop job :)

    1. This... was significantly more extensive than what I expected.

    2. I never do a half-assed job :)
      And the funny thing is that it only took a couple of minutes.
      My first thought was to do reverse image searches. which requires that you either save the images or have the image links, but easily accessible in this case.Whether you have save the images or get the image links you will get the image names.

      My knowledge of photoshopping did set off some alarms regarding the lighting and shadows on the towel, but as previously mentioned most people probably will not notice it :)

  6. The first image is named "Player-towel".

    Well played, that anonymous. Well played.
