Spring Pictures-channel mixer




The channel mixer adjustment was used to change the reds, greens, and blues, in these spring pictures. The main object's color really was brought out.After the channel mixer there is a choice whether to show the effect on the whole picture or not. I wanted to only show the effect on the main object.

Scans




They objects I scanned a while back had to be altered. I put a background underneath the objects. The brightness and contrast had to be adjusted with these pictures.

Reflection


There are different types of reflections, but i chose the reflection in sunglasses. I had a picture of sunglasses, and a picture to be reflected off of them.

Collage


A collage artist was replicated in order to do this project. The collage required cutting out objects, with the quick selection tool, and just putting things together. However, my collage was more of a photo montage. The artist meant for the montages to look Spring like, and the backgrounds were meant to look fake. I took most of the pictures in my collage.

Light




The first light picture was pretty hard to make, but it turned out really cool. The pen tool was used to create the design of the light. This project required starting with one curve and duplicating it many times. Then adding color.



With the second light image, i followed a tutorial and actually made a sparkle trail to put on an image.
