For my final image i picked this edit:
I chose the above edit as my final picture because i love how its set and they all just fit in so well together in the photo. Also like the brightness and the texture of it.
for my photoshoot i used loads of different toots and edited them all in different ways. These are the best photoshoots and edits out of all of them, in my opinion.

Edited images:
For all of these photoshoots the texture has decreased and i tried to make as different to each other as possible. I was playing around with the colours and the brightness and the highlights and i ended up liking them like it’s show above.
This is a image of how i edited the first image of them all above.
I then decided to take photos of more than one obejcts and edit them and this is how it turned out.

Edited images:
For the second photoshoot in the above i decided to make it a bit more different to the others and change the background of it, i’m not quite sure i like it, i like how its set and the shadows of the objects but all together i dont think its that good. Out of those three the one i liked the most of the first one because i like how the texture is nice and smooth and i like how its nice and bright in the middle then goed dark on the outside.
The first picture is the normal picture and the second one is edited. I prefer the edited one because it has brighter colours.
I then decided to take more photos but only using one or two objects.

Those are the top five best photos in my opinion because i like the colours and the texture in each photo and love how they are all different in a way.
Best photo:
I picked the photo above as the best photo because i like how bright it is. it just makes it seem more alive also like how the objects are set up.
To edit my best photo i increased the tecture of the photo and i britned it up so it can look more bright. When i added more brightness to the photo i tried to still keep the shadows of the objects to make it better.
