Help with poster in PS...

[Conteo]

I have created this PS. its spost to be advertising Derby Free running (parkour).

I dont think that the figure (me) sits very well on the rail, my hands arnt cuped if you know what I mean.

How would I go about making my hands fit it more?

Thanks.

Aside from shooting your hands over a rail and imposing them on the image there may not be too much you can do. I will say that the image you have created looks good it was only on the third look and your description did I see that there was anything to be worried about. The average viewer will not see what you or I see.

Not sure if this helps but good work.

Ok, I will take another picture today with my hands on a rail.

Thanks anyways.

Where is that picture set? It looks like Wembley Stadium but I can't make out if the background is actually what was there when I went a few weeks ago.

parkour is immense - wish i could do it

A thing that really throws the image off is that you've put some kinda haze surrounding your body that separates you from the rest of the image and looks very unnatural.

Yer i thought that too, its just a duplicate layer and then added some motion blur. They showed us how to do this at uni and i think they might be looking for it when they mark it. I think it looks ****.

The picture is in Derby.

Does the picture look ok then guys/gals, can you tell that thats not the original sky etc and the rails aren't actually in that location?

loose the motion blur and i think it will make it look more natural. At the moment u can kinda tell that the sky has been put in there

as for rails, again the haze from your hands / motion blur make them look un natural and if you look at your left arm, you have no hand?

Get rid of that motion blur layer.
If you NEED to have it in there, then at least change the blending mode of the layer to something that looks a bit more natural.

I assumed from the composition that the image was more photo art then trying to be photo realism. It is cool composition and one that could run in an ad etc. Not one that could be published in a newspaper.
I agree with the above ditch the blur as well. Still good work thanks for posting.
