The document discusses various Photoshop techniques used to edit a photo, including adjusting curves to make greens greener and flowers stand out more, cropping the photo to follow the rule of thirds and remove empty space, lowering exposure to show flower detail with brighter lighting and better shadows, and adding a lens flare to transition the main flower from dark to light.

1. Photoshop
technique:
curves
In
this
photo
I
messed
around
with
the
curves
making
the
green
a
bit
greener
and
making
the
pink,
red
and
yellow
in
the
flowers
stand
out
more.
I
turned
down
the
blue
a
little
bit
and
move
the
green
a
bit
to
allow
the
leaves
and
grass
to
be
the
green
in
the
edited
photo,
in
order
for
the
flowers
to
stand
out
from
the
greenness
of
the
plants
around
it,
I
had
to
make
an
adjustment
to
the
red
to
make
the
green
compliment
the
pink
flower.

2. Photoshop
techniques:
Cropping
I
cropped
the
photo
so
that
the
image
is
in
the
rule
of
thirds,
and
so
it
can
also
show
more
detail,
it
was
also
cropped
to
remove
the
empty
space
on
the
right
side
of
the
image.

3. Photoshop
technique:
exposure
I
lowered
most
of
the
exposure
down
so
that
the
flowers
are
shown
with
much
more
detail
then
the
unedited
version,
it
makes
the
light
that
shines
down
on
the
plants
brighter,
and
more
saturated
but
the
shadows
look
much
better.

4. Photoshop
technique:
lens
flare
In
this
image
I
needed
to
put
the
lens
flare
in
a
place
that
makes
the
main
flower
go
from
dark
to
light,
so
I
put
it
to
the
furthest
of
the
left
side
and
placed
it
near
the
top
of
the
screen,
which
placed
it
on
the
satellite.
