Title: Water reflection plugin ??
Post by: lephotography on March 14, 2009, 16:56
Does anyone know what plug in is used to make this water reflection? I found alot of tutorials but they are all pretty cheesy looking. Here is an example picture of what I am looking for.      dolgachov uses them all the time.

I'm with Thesentinel on this one.
"Flood" from Flamingpear is the plug-in you want.

You can easily double the size of your porfolio.  Flood everything ;)

If used in right places, thereīs no chance to tell itīs fake.   Well,  and then thereīs those cheesy looking images...

Not to be a jerk or anything, but do images with that fake water reflection really sell? I dont think I have ever seen one done where it looked "natural" or maybe I have and it was done so well I didnt catch it.

What is the point of taking an isolated photo and adding a ripple? Wouldnt that lower the value of the photo because it wouldnt be "technically" isolated?

Personally for stock, I would not think it would sell. I agree they are not natural looking. I wanted to find it because I did a model shoot and wanted it for myself for an idea I had. I must be getting bored and just wanted to play. LOL

Oh, they sell trust me. I have several. They simply got rejected from some agencies, but they sell at agencies that accept this kind of images.

They do sell, natural looking or not. After all, some most popular landscapes at many agencies do not look natural at all.
