Final Editing

I have been editing my final pictures using photoshop. Here are a couple of examples of what I have done to the pictures by screen grabbing.
This is the original.

And here I have cropped it down so that the watering can is in the middle and also I have darkened the colours by changing the Hue/Saturation to bring out the typical look of a watering can and also it gives the image a lot more character.
This was the original image and it was too bright so I edited it by going into Layer, New Adjustment Layer and then Levels.
After changing the levels I ended up warming the colours in the image very slightly.
And then I increased the vibrance to really bring out the warmth in the picture.
Here is the original of the interior of the NotreDame.
Here is when I added a new black and white layer editor. I changed the levels so that it would bring out the light colours and darken the darker ones.
Here is the final edited image with the 
Here is another original image.
To edit this one I first wanted to bring out more colour so I decided to open a new Hue/Saturation layer.
Then I changed the levels so that the colour was enhanced, only very slightly though.
Then I opened a new Black and White layer, changing the image so that it's not too light or dark.
Then I changed the colour balance of the image so it gave it a "Wild West" ancient sort of look. As it gives the building history.
Then I changed the balance again so it looked as if the building was painted white whereas it was actually painted a dark yellow.

    Now this has been labelled better throughout your blog it should become easier for you to see what needs to be done and where to add more value. Target the weakest number of labels and try to add more or create new blogs to meet them please.

  2. Hi
    And good screen grabs to show what you did in photoshop, keep that up but also try to write a bit more about what you did and why, etc to improve your work.
