On this picture I ended up adding at least 7 or 8 layers to the image where I played around with things like exposure, contrast and other variables which made the picture look the best that I thought it could.
This is a picture I edited previously where I made the subject in color and the background be all black and white which is an approach I could take to the final piece so that the readers attention is directed towards juts the subject.
This was the favorite of the pictures I edited today as I did want to focus the attention onto the central player as he had just scored a basket and was the best player on the court on the day.
The above pictures show my progress through today’s session of editing some of the pictures I believe I will use for my final piece.
They all have different levels of brightness/contrast/exposure/vibrance which is not something that will happen when I edit them for the final piece.
I want to make all the pictures have consistent levels of all mentioned above as it then gives a slick look to the final piece and not that they are all telling a different story or look like they were taken by different cameras.
