Photoshop

In our last class we spent some time getting to know our way around the basics of Photoshop, trying different techniques / tools and creating some ‘fantasy landscape’ type images, a selection of images below:

1. image given a soft border (vignette) using paint brush & gaussian blur



2. Then changed to black & white, I think this works,
makes the image look older and
Zac looks even more handsome ;o)



3.  Cut out part of an image using  magnetic lasso and pasted onto a landscape shot



4.  Image cropped further



5. This is the London Eye on an Anglesey beach 
One image overlaid onto another using multiply layers
and then changing the opacity to gain the best effect. 

6.  A street in Bath city centre with one of our studio shots
of a mannequin wearing a gas-mask and make-shift skirt. 
This was created using the same technique as above

I have really enjoyed creating the images above, Photoshop is definitely addictive and I could easily spend hours and hours experimenting with different techniques.   Watch this space ......
