I have shown the ways I have changed my double page spread image and why

1. EDITING MY DOUBLE-PAGE SPREAD
IMAGE
As you can see from this image I have
blurred out the background and added
brightness and contrast to the image to
make the model stand out more. Initially,
this was my final picture for my double-page
spread as I liked the way I edited it.
However, I do see some faults in this
image, and when I got my peers and
teacher to assess it, they could also see the
faults I could. A major fault was that the
background of this image looked very
unprofessional, and since I’m aiming for a
professional regional magazine, I need a
background that looked as if it was taken
professionally.

2. EDITING MY DOUBLE-PAGE SPREAD
IMAGE
I transformed my image background into
this background to make it look more
professional. To do this, I used the ‘Clone
Stamp Tool’ to bring the tree’s on the right
hand side over to the left-hand side to look
like the green tree’s were intentional for the
image to be successful. I again asked my
peers to assess the image with the changes
added to it and they thought it was so much
better and looked way more professional. I
personally like it better as the background
also makes my model stand out much more
and focuses purely on her clothes and face.
