Yo Stumbler follow me on twitter @designshard – Yeehaw! lets ride this design wave.
I’ve tried to collect a few photo effects tutorials that are very much centred around one subject rather than a complete photo manipulation. If you don’t like the finished product I’m sure you’ll find some cool techniques to do certain effects in these tutorials.
Texture Lovers has some great free textures for use in your photo manipulations too.
How to Turn Humdrum Photos into Cinematic Portraits
Dance Photo Manipulation
Water Effect Photo Montage
Create A Vibrant Image Using Photoshop
Creating a Vector Composite Effect from a Photo
Beautiful Lady Light Effects
Create a Flaming Photo Manipulation
Create a Sparkling Fantasy Photo Manipulation
Electrifying Energy Beams
Create dynamic distortion effects
Disintegration Effect
Use lighting Effects To Make Photos Sparkle
This one isnt really a tutorial beacuse it doesnt supply any of the assets to complete it, but i thought id ad it here to serve as inspiration.

Chandu: Nice collection thanks for providing the...
assurance: I was looking for that kind of texture. ...
scooter: Thank you for these texture pack. Very u...
these are fabulous!!
Honestly, as a photographer, most of these look awful.
If you’re in the Ad World, they would be applicable.
For truly remarkable photographs of people, you should
resort to minor enhancements to bring out the beauty of
the person, not to invent something they are not.
well duh @mjt. They are not photographs, are they. They are images made from photographs. They are not meant to be photographs of people. Thought that was pretty clear from the whole article. Surprised you didn’t get it!
I think they are fabulous. Brilliant design and creation. Thanks.
Yeah, for a ‘photographer’ that is a pretty narrow minded way to look at it. Those are a completely different genre of work. Your right though, artistic innovation never got anyone anywhere…sike.
