Hamptonne: Objects

Whilst editing these objects I tried to enhance the colours that were already on screen in order to create a set of peaceful yet old images.

Editing One of My Photos

My original photo

I decided to edit this image as I thought the framing and angle that the image was taken at looked interesting especially with the natural light falling upon part of the chest, enhancing the shadows and the details carved into the wood. I think I could enhance this image further by giving the light a warmer look [which’ll make the image look softer] then tint the shadows red so they don’t look clash against the light.

I started the edit by increasing the temperature of the photo, giving it a warm look before increasing the sharpness of the image, making it so the details of the chest and objects on the chest were visible. Next, I tinted the highlights so they were orange and made the highlights a subtle magenta which complimented the image nicely. I finished off the edit by adding a soft vignette, making it white as the image was already quite dark, which created a small light leak at the bottom of the image.

Before and After of one of my edits where I made the light an orangey tone and tinted the shadows so they were a subtle purple.

This is my favourite still life portrait as I like the framing of the photo. I think the centred bowls make the image visually appealing along with the slight tilt in the frame. I also think the pinkish shadows and highlights add to the photo as they make the image look warmer.
