Internet Returns!

I finally got the internet back! I also had a photoshoot today in which I modelled for the photographer Graham Sessions http://www.modelmayhem.com/577142

We included my dog in a couple images and I will post it in a second.

I have only edited a couple images so far, here they are:

The second Image is made of 6 images put together and edited on photoshop to get the desired effect.

It took me about half an hour to edit this image, which I don't think is too bad seeing as I have done lots to complete it.

I was surfing the internet late last night and I found a very cool website which allows you to upload and download brushes which can be used in photoshop. The brushes are very cool and allow you to create interesting designs on and as images.

I have alot of coursework to be getting on with, so I must not spend too much time on my blog tonight.

Thanks for reading!

Before and After

I attended an open day at the Arts Institute at Bournemouth on Tuesday. I am going to apply there for next year and hopefully I'll get in.

Im concentrating on my personal statement and I'm getting on with my portfolio. For my course I would be doing a module on photo editing so I'm putting together some before and after images, which I have used photoshop to edit.

Going through my images of before and after, I have looked at my images with more criticism and I am cutting down on my very best images.

Here are some of the images I have edited.

I used the actions I have on photoshop to edit this image.

I used 'boost' to boost the colours and the contrast. I also sharpened the image and then gave it a letterbox crop.

This is another picture of the same dog. I boosted the colours and cropped the image to get rid of the top part of the image. I also had to clone the top left to make it all grass because otherwise the background would be eye catching.

I also sharpened the image and made the right hand side lighter to even out the image more.

When I had edited the images, I realised the grass in the foreground is more in focus than the dog is. I am not as keen on this image as I was before because of this.

This is the end of today's post.
