Week 9

For these jelly fish photos, I used the magic wand tool, the paint brush, and the hue and saturation tool. On the second picture I chose only to change the color of one of the jellyfish and I also added an "i love jelly" logo to the back of the bi standard's shirt. On the first photo I used the hue and saturation tool to colorize many different jelly fish and to add a face to an unsuspecting jelly.





For these photos I used the crop, quick selection tool, and the contrast and brightness tool. I used the quick selection tool to add some fish from another picture, adding movement and rhythm to the original. I darkened the two smaller fish, while lightening the two yellow fish in the foreground. I cropped out a yellow blur at the bottom of the photo.
For the second photograph, I used the crop tool to make the image smaller, putting more emphasis on the yellow fish. I also lightened up selected portions of the background and the subjects to create a more dramatic effect.

Here I used the Dodge, Burn, and Sharpen tools. In one photograph, I lightened the light objects, such as the stones, the anemones, and the star fish, and sharpened the starfish. In the other photograph, I did the opposite, while sharpening some of the larger stones.

Week 6 Part 2 - The Piano Series

For these photographs, I used a green round plastic chip over the end of my lens and worked on creating perspective using piano keys. In the end, I was trying for an abstract photo that gives the illusion of a city sky scraper, indicating that music comes from the city.
