It’s funny where inspiration hits. The other day I was having lunch and I noticed on the menu there was a remarkable image of a margarita. I started thinking, “that is an interesting water effect.” Of course being the Photoshop geek I am, I started thinking about how I would create that effect in Photoshop. Well, I got home that evening and started messing around with it and the result came out pretty good. This piece was created entirely from scratch using Photoshop and Illustrator. No photographs whatsoever. Click here to see. As a result I have begun to break it down and I am exploring the possibilities of recreating the image as an online training course for Kelby Training.

Corey shares another way to get a cool 3D light beam effect.
Corey finishes up the Olympic-inspired design that he began last week in Part 1.
The Olympic-inspired tutorial will be coming in two parts. Stop by next week for the conclusion to this video.
This week’s tutorial deals with creating masks for complicated images by using channels.
You can open RAW images in Camera Raw right from Bridge in Photoshop CS3. This frees up Photoshop to continue working on your files while they’re being processed in Camera Raw. Just select one or more images in Bridge, Control-click (PC: Right-click) on them, and choose Open in Camera Raw. This will open the image(s) in Bridge’s Camera Raw rather than Photoshop. You can also use the keyboard shortcut Command-R (PC: Ctrl-R).

Looks very stunning. Very Photo realistic. Care to share how it’s done? I’m guessing it’s something very complicated but it’s probably just a few simple steps (knowing how complex things usually is very simple).
