Edit One

These tools are what I used to fill in the blocks of colour. Starting by using the polygon lasso tool to select the outline of fields I then moved onto filling in the selected area with the bucket tool, switching between the colours at the base of the tool panel.

The photo above shows the layer blocked with colour, showing the shapes I made and selected using the polygon lasso tool.

This created the final image presented above. By blocking out parts of the field in black and white to match the photo it forces people to look at the image as it’s bold and intriguing.

Edit Two

This is a comparison between the original image and the black and white edited version. When editing the image I adjusted the highlights so the grey seemed duller, improving the visibility of the lighter sand patches and the sea wall. This helped me see the parts in the image I was going to cover while making the rest of the image a high quality black and white image.

For this photo I again, blocked out the fields/agricultural area in the photos showing just how much of the land is commercialised and effected by vital but often destructive human influence on the land.

Edit Three

For this photo I used the same process of changing the photo to black and white in light room before moving the image to photoshop to use the select and fill tools to map out the fields in the same style of the the other shots.

Final Images

This created a trio of photos edited in a similar style with the same emphasis on the environment. By using the fill tool to blank out sections of the agricultural landscape, it adds direction to the photos encouraging the viewer to look at the environment and how agriculture has effected it. By using black and white images with black and white blocks on top it has created a monotone effect adding harsh contrast and geometric shapes to help get the point of how much agriculture has effected out landscapes. Although it is essential the effect is still there.
