Short List of Photographs After Editing.

After choosing from the three photo shoots a selection of photographs that I thought had most potential, I edited, where I deemed necessary, each one using Photoshop. I found this to be quite a difficult task as I had not had much experience with Photoshop. I also struggled to decide in what direction I wished to take the image. For inspiration, I looked again at the work of the photographers that I researched. When I wanted to use a certain technique on the picture, I would look for instructional videos on YouTube. I found this to be very helpful.

These are the short list of photographs after editing, it is from this selection that I will choose my final ten images.

Short List of Photographs for My Final Ten Images.

From the three photo shoots, these are the images that I believe to have the most potential. I have chosen ones which I feel are most inspired by the photographers that I researched. While they are not exact copies, they do, to me, have some similarities. This will be explored further with my ten final images.

I plan on using Photoshop, where I think it necessary, to edit each photograph. This editing will be as straight forward as cropping the image or making the image black and white to something fairly difficult as changing the background colour while keeping the image the same.
