Still Life Editing

Selecting Pictures Process

I used P (pick) and X (reject) to choose which pictures I wanted to keep and use later on for my edits.
Then I compared the images that looked similar and picked the one I liked the most by starring it.
After starring my pictures, I colour coded them and decided which ones I wanted to edit. (yellow = maybe, green = yes, red = no)

Editing An Image

the original image and how I edited it

I decide to edit this photograph because I though the lighting was quite good and I liked the way I placed the item. This is because the rope is clearly visible and you can see all the small details on it which I thing looks interesting. I also liked the colours in the image because they compliment each other. The metal thing with the paint on reminded me of a paint palette.

I started by cropping the image because I wanted the object to be more visible to the viewer. I increased the temperature by a little bit because I wanted to give it a warmer tone and make it softer (the studio lights were a bit too harsh in my opinion). Increasing the whites and shadows made the whole image brighter and I liked that because the details became more visible.
