The document describes editing a photo taken at Salford Quays on a gloomy day to make it seem like it was taken on a sunny early morning. Various editing techniques were applied like adding a curve effect to darken and add vibrancy, applying a warm orange filter, adding a lens flare in the sky, and using lighting and level effects to focus on the bridge in the background by darkening the edges and creating shadows.

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.
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.

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.

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

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.

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.
