In Adobe Photoshop i edited this picture so the object was in the centre of the image. On this picture i put the grid lines in to obey the "Third Grid Rule". I put in lines at measurements at 33% and 66%; this is so the ruler lines were exactly apart. The image i have edited here isn't quite in the centre on the actual picture. What i did to fix this was use the tool free transform; this reduces and increases the size of the image and by pressing the shift key does change the size of the image itself. By increasing the picture to make it bigger it made the centre object right in the middle of the whole image; The picture above is an example of me putting in the ruler lines.
The image on the left is an image of the original picture took earlier today (September 9th 2014); without the grid the picture doesn't look to bad but with the grid you can see where the object isn't central. After i edited it so it was in the middle, i then changed the brightness and the contrast of the image to brighten and make the picture look better.
This image is the completed, edited version of the origianl image. As you can see, the central object is more in the middle and the brightness and contrast has darkened and the picture looks effective and it now stands out a whole lot more than the orginal image.
Again with this image i used Photoshop to obey the third grid rule using the exact same measurements as last time. The image i have taken is in the "Golden Section" area of a picture. The golden section is in any image if the main object/subject is in the golden section of the picture, it will always look good. I Also to make the image look effective i changed the brightness and the contrast of the image: the brightness i took down to -39 and changed the contrast so it was higher at 64. This darkened the picture and the object (the tree) but also shown the sunlight a lot more in the image. This looked better than the orginal image. As you can see at the bottom right hand corner of the building on the first image is the actual colour of the collge, colours including red and oranges. Whereas the second image where it is darkend the bulding is almost black making the rest of th eimage stand out.
The image on the left is the original picture i took earlier today. This image is slightly differnt from wahat it looks like in picture above as it was been edited in photoshop. Firstly, to make this image better, what i did was straighten the image out. If you look at the very bottom of the picture the row of houses are slanted to one side. In order for the image to look a whole lot better, i straigthen the whole image out by using the tool free transform. I increased the image and staghtend it by rotaing a little so i got the perfect image.
The image on the right is a picture i took this morning, As i thought the picture was quite affected in the way that it looks like silhouette, i didn't think any editing was needed. However i uploaded it onto photoshop and used the third grid rule to make sure that the far left tree was in the lefthand side of the grid. I thought the sunlight and the clouds really makes the picture creative and effective, Although the sky was blue and the tree were green, i took this picture on manual mode and didn't put any settings on the camera to make it turn out like this one.
This is the original image i took of a motorcycle/scooter outside of college today. The image is central however when i put the measurements of the grid onto Adobe Photoshop the vehicle wasn't as central as i first thought.
Unlike the other pictures i have taken this image is a portrait; i took it vertically on the camera that i used. I thought the greenery was effective and the pattern on the tree trunk was memsmorising. I decided to take this image as it was like no other, it was unique in its own way so i thought to capture and edit it later on. The same rules apply in terms of the third grid rule; the only difference is that the picture was taken vertically. As the main object (The tree trunk) isnt central i moved it slightly to the right so the main trunk was directly central of the image; the sides were exactly on pint of the both the lines at 33% and 66%.
Out of all the images i captured and edited this was my favourite one to edit. This is because i could edit it in any way wanted although making sure the central object was in the centre of the third grid rule, just touching both the lines. What i did to improve this image was; i brightend the image by darkening it. I took the contrast down but turned the brightness just little bit more thatn zero. The picture was then darker than the original image i took. I was determined to make this image look better than the other pictures i took, because i feel this is the picture i captured whilst i was out taking pictures and i felt like i could do a lot to edit it and make it look atmospheric.After changing the contrast and the brightness, i added other effects to the photo to embrace the nature in the image. In the top right hand corner there is a glimpse of a rainbow even there wasnt one before. I thought it looked effective and it draws attention to the picture as it is a mixture of colours; the main colours in this photograph is green, so by adding the glimpse of a rainbow into it i thought brightened up the picture, draws attention to it and also to embrace the nature of the whole image. However the rainbow wasnt enough to make the picture as atmospheric as i would of hoped. From previous experience of using photoshop i used a tool called the gradient tool (Rectangle 1). I dragged this tool from the bottom right hand corner and dragged it about 1/4 of the way up; this made the picture gradually darken from the top, i was eventually happy with what i edited. By doing this the picture now looks a lot more atmospheric as it got to the ground. The whole image is now ethereal, and i believe i have made the image a whole lot more superior.
