Above you can see a picture that I took as part of a task we had to do a few weeks ago to go into the city to take some pictures, playing with the F-stop. Whilst we were walking back, I used the scaffolding as a chance to get behind Will and take a quick picture which I thought might look alright with the lighting. This picture is decent but the original was a little too dark so I changed that and produced the image at the top. I did this by simply just playing with the contrast and the brightness of the image.

These pictures were taken at home recently. I was looking after the dog and let her out for a wee and noticed the sky and thought to take a picture of it because it looked nice and quite dramatic. The original picture didn’t turn out how I looked because it was quite dark and there was a sharp contrast between the sunset and the rest of the photo. In the edit I changed a few things, mainly the brightness and the contrast in the image. I also changed the hue and the lightness and managed to make the image a lot easier to see and the contrast between the sunset and the rest of the image less harsh.
Re-edit
Above is a re-edit of the sunset image. Upon reflection, the original edit wasn’t quite right and needed changing a little bit. I changed the contrast and the brightness some more as well as the exposure and it got slightly better. It didn’t need a massive change but the re-edit doesn’t have what looks like a greyish filter above the original edit.
