Before

After

In this image i added a lens flare and put it in a natural position and then used lighting effects to create a natural look, also i added a glow filter to make the sky light up. The after image looks better because the effects i have used make the image look happier than the orginal, not to mention less dark.

I added a vignette and a high level of exposure to this particular image. The after image looks better because the exposure gives a summer glow effect, make the image look less grey than the original

I added a lens flare, and used the lighting affect tool to create a subtle vignette. I used colour curves 

and exposure to bring out the true colours. The after image looks better because the colours stand out alot more than the orginal image.

This is a simple picture of the ground.... the ridges and bumps look interesting.

This closeup gives a strong vibrant feeling, this is possible because of the vibrant colour.

This is a picture of some graffiti i found, its quite interesting to see all the faded names and marks from past generations.

 This is my favrouite picture that i have taken, i saw a wet wall and decided to take this, the wetness is visible in the picture, also the erosion of the brick and the metal itself.

This is a common photo of our school, this picture is just a simple shot of the side of our old building...the wear and tear doesn't show in this picture.

This is a picture of grayhill, the lighting isnt exactly perfect in this, the clouds were blocking the sun. this picture follows the rule of thirds because the subject matter(the picture) is on the right.

This is a simple picture of a tree, the light wasnt very effective in this shot, but the natural sky light has defined the edges of the branch. this also follows the rule of thirds because the tree is on the left.

This picture is a mixture of a close up and a longshot, it shows the bark and the detail of the moss but also shows the true size of the tree and how effective a little camera trickery can be.

This is the folder that contains all my photos that i have used this year

In this picture i used the eraser tool and erased the coloured picture, with a black and white picture behind so it gives this affect

In this picture i edited the picture to only include the colour of the eyes

firstly i created 2 images the same, changed one image to black and white, i then used colour range to select the eye colour. I then copy and pasted the colour and erased the coloured layer and i was left with this image.
