Photo Manipulation








Here I took three images I have taken; My dad's eye which looks outstretched  almost looking painful, to give a striking effect. A photo of my friend (using the studio), I liked this photo as she looks almost anonymous as you cannot see her face. The building was one in Hastings  but when put with a background so blank it looks quite foreboding.  


I changed the colour of the eye to red, mainly because red signifies danger. I did this by using the 'drawing too' and filling it with a red colour, then changing the opacity.

I then changed the image by adjusting the 'brightness and contrast' and 'colour vibrance'.  
I then layered the building on top and changed the layers opacity. Giving it an eerie effect. This is my favorite as it looks more eerie.
I still need to bleed the images out more as this is still an image not a poster. 


I then made the building stand out more and cropped the image to A4. I don't like how the image started to change from here on, the eye was no longer as red and I wanted the building to stand out more but the effect I used didn't work like I would have liked. 

Afterwards I layered the image of the girl onto the eye, as the seeing a reflection/through the subjects eyes. Next time I should maybe edit the photos individually and then put them together instead of layering them and then editing them. 

The final image.
