I know this needs work, but does it convey "oops"?

Haven't found any windows or windshields yet with the appropriate organic matter on it but I thought I'd post this to see what you guys thought. :dunno

That is very funny! Definitely an oops.

I have an idea...!

- You don't need to find a windshield. You can take a photo of yours from inside
and ad that to it, plus the bird flying away :wink

Also a definite Oh, crap! moment. Or Oh, crud! if you want to use cleaner language.

ha! That is hilarious! I would put a little chunk in there somewhere just to define it some. How about calling it "Poop happens"...LOL:thumb

LOL...that's what I'm having a hard time with: adding chunks, etc., to make it look real. Can't quite get it to look right in PS. There just aren't many bird poop tutorials available on line for Photoshop. :rofl

Omg, I was thinking of that exact same idea! Sadly, I don't shoot birds and couldnt even begin to conceive how to do it, so I'm glad you have nailed it!

Very funny, well executed. Nice job! :thumb

Take a picture of a stucco wall or some other really textured surface. On a seperate layer on your original....clone or brush the texture in and fade the surface to like 5 or 10 percent. You can change the color of the texture to a puky green or something. That is how I would approach it.:deal

STUCCO!!! :clap:clap:clap

You're right. That would be perfect. Thanks! :thumb

Now to go find a building with a stucco exterior...:scratch:rofl

Another way to do it is to find a picture of bird poop on a car windshield on Google.
(No you wont be using the picture directly)
Open the picture with photoshop and select the bird poop using color range.
Once the selection is where you want it, turn it into a new layer.

Select the pixels on the new layer and fill with black.

Turn that selection into a brush.

Use jitter etc.. on the brush to make it look random and paint it white.

Fade it maybe put another layer with green and browns in it and add a layer mask and make only small parts come through into the white, use a soft light or overlay blending mode.

With layer masks , grey brushes etc.. you can make it look very convincing I think.

Or use stucco, that might work as well!

Hah! I just had a bird poop on my windshield yesterday, while driving. I didn't realize the valuable thing I sprayed off with my wipers! Good interpretation! :thumb

This has been discussed before but since you are rather new....all images must be accounted for and be fresh. Every pixel you use you need to be able to account for. From the rules....

Proof of Fresh Photo: Entries must have exif embedded (do not use methods such as "save for web", which strip exif info). As such, only images taken digitally will be accepted (no scanned images). Photos made via HDR must include the exif from one of the merged images. Composite images must be composed entirely of fresh images, and must include exif from ALL of the images used.

Hey Linda, I found your poop!!! - from AndMan's thread :wink

Go and buy a piece of glass from a window's store, and then,
go into a park with geese and put it on the ground, near to them.
I'm sure in few minutes you will have it :rofl

My first attempt at "realism" using a stucco texture: :rofl:rofl:rofl

I could not make a green look convincing. :dunno

If this doesn't pan out, I think I know where I may be able to get a shot of the real stuff. Oh lord -- never thought I'd see the day I'd go out to photograph bird$hit. What is this world coming to? :nono:lol3

Brushes are OK to use, though. I've used a bird brush in an earlier challenge and I know that nightpixels has used them too.

The first attempt at realism does not work as well for me as the all white.

Keep at it! This is a great idea!

Son of a B%$#&!, is the exact phrase I would use in this scenario.

:rofl
