Still Life Samples:
Before:
Here I took this photograph in a John Blakemore style. This was a simple photograph of a bin with some rope around it. I quite like this photograph as it is quite quirky and really interesting. Before:
This was another photograph of which I had taken in the Blakemore style. I placed a few bottles down and took a high angle photograph. I quite like it as it looks rather interesting and look well presented. |
After:
In Photoshop I uploaded this picture and I used the dodge, burn, sharpen, sponge, smudge and blur tools. I could have changed the fuzziness of the photo too by going to: Select --> Colour Range --> Choose fuzziness then go to full and choose any colour. I do quite like the way it is as the rope looks really sharp to the chrome bin, also used the burn tool on the rope to give this effect. After:
In Photoshop I used the same tools ie: dodge, burn, smudge, blur etc. For this particular photograph I changed the contrast hue / saturation. I first had to desaturate the image as I prefer the black and white standard photographs. I also had to change the exposure by changing how bright or dark the photograph is. |
