Here are the photographs that I felt turned out the best, which I edited, to enhance the colours, contrast and exposure.

photograph one

I edited this photograph by adjusting the levels, to enhance the blacks, midtones and whites. I did this because I wanted to create an intense contrast between the sunset, the clouds and the sea. I also increased the saturation, which brought out the oranges and reds, meaning the photograph stands out and is more interesting. Doing this also allows there to be a brighter reflection on the sand too, adding interest for the viewer.

photograph two

For this photograph I practically did the same as the photograph above, as I wanted to achieve the same output, a more colourful and appealing photograph. If I was to edit this photograph again I would fix the horizon line, mean it would be even more aesthetically pleasing and would have a better composition.

photograph three

For this photograph, I enhanced the saturation and contrast, to accentuate the colours and details in the picture. I like the fog that sits on the horizon, as it creates an ominous tone. This photograph has very extreme darks in the bottom half, which balances out the photograph.

photograph four

For this photograph, I enhanced the contrast, to allow all the elements to be more bold and set apart from another. This meant that the rock face has more detail and 3D.
