Photoshop Forensics Part II
After the popularity of Part I of the Photoshop Forensics exercises I have decided to do it again!
I used a couple very simple techniques to create these images and rather than offer a post-processing tutorial I’m going to turn the challenge back onto you, my blog readers. Sometimes the best way to learn your tools is to imagine how other photographers are using them, so in that spirit look at these images carefully and leave a comment describing the post processing techniques you think I used to create these images.
What parts are real and what parts were created in post processing? Leave your opinion in the comments below and I’ll post the answer in a few days – I hope!

i think the water is real and the makeup is photoshopped. maybe you created a blank layer and painted the colors on either their eyes lips or cheeks and then overlayed them or blended them some way and the changed the opacity accordingly. i dunno if thats right but its probably how id do it!

You girls are accurate about which parts were done in post-processing but neither of you have described the technique used to create the effects! Keep trying!

In the second image it looks like the eyes, lips, neck and hair have been exaggerated with the liquify tool. I think the colors were pumped up with the sponge tool at a very low setting. Is this correct? -Heidi

@Heidi. Incorrect. No liquify tool was used... Jorgen (the model) really does have those amazing features in real life!
