Contents Page Photo Edits

Original Image

This is the original image form my first photo shoot. After choosing this picture to feature on my contents page, I didn't think it was necessary to edit it, as it was the right size, composition as well as displaying a good range of colours that I liked.

Firstly, the original version of this image was not the right size to fit with the layout of my contents page. So in order to fix this, I used the crop tool, which allowed me to select the part of the image I wanted to use. I then adjusted the components of the picture, for example the brightness and contrast. This made the image more visible on the page as well as creating a more pop feel.

I feel the original version of this image is better than the edited. However, the composed design fits better with my chosen genre of pop. I changed the background of this image as all the shots I took during my two photo-shoots had the same setting colour. To add more variety, I added a frosty blue shade, which ties in with the house theme of my overall magazine.

I cut away the background of this image by using the lasso tool in order to show the text on the rest of the page. I made sure I refined and smoothed the edges of the image, to take away the sharpness and give the feature a more realistic effect.
