Week 3

Last week we started to take some more pictures and edit our previous and the pictures we took last week pictures. We added much more complex effects. I thought about doing more than just changing the contrast and brightness, i also played around with using different layers of pictures. I tried to cut and paste certain sections of different pictures to create a sort of collage. This looked a little bit messy and i think i may attempt to put less in the collage next lesson or perhaps for the real thing. I also tried adding distortion effects such as a lens flare which looked really good it think it also added a new dimension to the image. I think i did well at using new techniques when editing not just using plain and boring adjustments. When i took pictures last week i thought back to my previous pictures and thought about how i could improve them, i thought that i needed a more varied selection of shots. In my previous shots the angles of my shots were pretty much all the same, also the distances i had taken them from were the same. So i thought that this time i should try and use more unique techniques such as low angle, close ups and perhaps longshots or panoramas. I took lots of interesting shots like this and tried to take equal amouts of different angles. After i had taken these photos, i started to edit them. I continued to edit in a more experimental way, as i had in the previous lessons. Here are some of the unedited images.
