Photo Shop Task

In this task we were asked to take an image and then process the image through different adjustments to alter the colours of the image.  The adjustments are Hue/Saturation, Desaturate, Channel Mixer, Black and White, half Black and White and half Colour and Black and White with part of the image in colour.  The image used was an image taken during the composition task to show focus and colour.




In this image I have used the Hue/Saturation Adjustment.  I increased the Hue and Saturation to add more colour to the original image and then slightly reduced the lightness to give a sharper image.



In this image I have used the Desaturate Adjustment which has taken all the colour from the image



In this image I have used the Channel Mixer Adjustment with allows you to play with the colours to create different and more interesting looks to your image.





In this Image I have used the Black and White Adjustment.  This desaturates the image and then allows you to change the intensity of the black and white.





In this Image I have used the Marquee Tool to select half of the image and then used the adjustment to make half the image Black and White. 




In this Image I have used Desaturate to remove the colour from the picture and then paintbrushed the red back into the flower.  This is my favourite image from the photoshop task. 


Evaluation

I feel that the task went well I have enjoyed learning about photoshop and the different tool to alter colour and contrast.  This is my image which was shot on auto as part of the composition tasks so the shutter speed and aperture are whatever the camera choose to shoot at. The copyright of the image has no legal technicalities as the image chosen to manipulate belongs to me. Image was shot with my Nikon D90 and lens 18-105.
