1. I took a photo of Salford Quays landscape. I thought that the
Photo looked very dull as it was taken on a gloomy day, so
there was no natural light to give key detail to the picture.
My intentions for his photograph was to make it seem like a
warm sunny day to give it more appeal to the audience. I felt
as though the sky contrasts very badly with the water.
I wanted the image to be darker as the photograph looked
Grainy and shadowed a lot of the detail. I used a curve effect
That added a shadow over the image and made the sky and
water more vibrant. This also added a cloudy effect to the sky
to make it seem early morning. This was to give a sharp look
to the sky and to the edges of the building so they stood out
More ready for the golden tint to be applied.

2. I liked the idea of making the photo early morning and
seeming like it was summer. So I chose a orange warm
glowing photo filter and overlayed it onto the original
photograph. I was happy with the effect because the sky
changed to orange but kept the building to their original
colour.
To give the realistic illusion that the photograph is early
morning. So I used the lens flare effect and switch it to
Movie prime and positioned it in the middle of sky. This
gave the illusion that it was sunny on the day I took on
the photo. I believe that this photo is now more vibrant
and appealing to look at. I also like the way that he water
Illuminates the water and gives it a reflective look to it.

3. The photo I chose did not need a lot of editing as it
already had depth of field applied when the original was taken.
I chose to edit this photograph because I felt like it need one
Little thing to make the photo complete.
For the effect that I used, I went to the filter page
on Photoshop. I used the Black and White effect.
As I thought the colour of the grass was distracting
To the main subject. This brought out better detail
In the guitar. I took inspiration from Nick Pickles for this
Photograph as most of his photographs are black and
white and add a lot of depth of field to make sure that
the guitar is seen as he main subject. This is a intriguing
photograph because as well as depth of field, it uses the
leading lines technique of the guitar that leads you to
the three band members at the back.

4. This is the original photograph of the bridge
In Salford Quays, I thought to edit this picture as
It is parallel and also like the first photo it is very
dull and bland.
I thought to mess around with the lighting
because the edges of the photo were too bright and I also
wanted the main subject to be the building in the
background through the bridges archway. So I used the
Lighting effects tool and created a light in the centre of the
photo creating a light shadow around the edges of the
Photograph. Because the photograph is seen as symmetry,
I believe that the effects I had to use had to be symmetrical.
The added shadow around he edges adds a immersion into
the photograph as you look right down the centre to the
building at the back.

5. I still thought there was not enough focus on the
centre of the bridge. So I added a level to make the
Shadow on the outside darker. This gave the building
a better and brighter bronze reflect, which I liked because
It looked like the light source of the photo.
As another option I changed the whole photo to
Black and white because it worked well with the black
Shadow but went against it because the other looked.
Appealed to me more. I did like the glow but I thought
because of the style of my previous photographs I thought
that I would follow with the black and white effect. Because
It made the photograph look more old fashioned.
