I know that we all have something to say about how this country is going to hell in a hand basket, but I still would rather live here than any other country. You got to admit back in the day some of us could not finish school because we had to take care of the farm and crops and livestock, or we had to get a job to support brothers and sisters cause our parents have died and passed on. But whatever the excuse is we must try to understand that we who complain about others don't know the circumstances in which they live in.
Just saying

This is a trend I have watched over the years. We try to simplify things to such an extent that, yes, even a monkey can do it. Cash registers that tell you how much change to give; calculators in school so they can add 2 + 2; Little League games where everyone is a winner; Schools that pass students that can't read or do simple math; and on, and on.

I work construction and it is difficult to find someone who can read a tape - and no, it is not three little marks past the big mark. We deal with kids that can't make it to work on time or won't stay late and God forbid they cannot work on weekends. They could work these hours for time and a half but they constantly bitch about not making enough money.

They expect you to supply their tools and let them leave early or take extra smoke breaks and get poochy-mouthed when you say no.

It' is sad that they leave school and home with no preparation for life. They are not instilled with any pride in themselves are their work.

Now, we can blame several targets but that' is useless. The big question is how and if we can change anything?

Sorry, I enjoy a rant at times as well.

Legend of La Gargouille

A French legend that sprang up around the name of St. Romanus ("Romain") (AD 631–641), the former chancellor of the Merovingian king Clotaire II who was made bishop of Rouen, relates how he delivered the country around Rouen from a monster called Gargouille or Goji. La Gargouille is said to have been the typical dragon with batlike wings, a long neck, and the ability to breathe fire from its mouth. There are multiple versions of the story, either that St. Romanus subdued the creature with a crucifix, or he captured the creature with the help of the only volunteer, a condemned man. In each, the monster is led back to Rouen and burned, but its head and neck would not burn due to being tempered by its own fire breath. The head was then mounted on the walls of the newly built church to scare off evil spirits, and used for protection.[4] In commemoration of St. Romain, the Archbishops of Rouen were granted the right to set a prisoner free on the day that the reliquary of the saint was carried in procession.

The check MIGHT be OK a long way from the subject and out of focus, but IMO, the paisley is not so good. It might be OK even farther back - like a mile or so.

The Refine Edge feature is also available in Photoshop Elements. With PSE 11 this feature got even better; it was brought over from Photoshop.

Most of the tutorials I have used for replacing the backgrounds in people photos were not trivial endeavors. The attention to detail by balancing the color,balancing the lighting and the shadows and the perceived DOF of the background required additional layers and subsequent masks.

The OP stated that the results do not look natural. This may be due to a mating problems with an unsuitable background.

The refined edge works well, its a Photoshop CS5 maneuver.

I know that digital art has its place and that Photoshop is the leading culprit, but the link I'm about to show you is so fascinating. This guy takes most of his photos but some times he uses stock photos. The older audiences may want to turn the sound down a little and the younger turn it up.

Check it out.
