Photoshop Experiments




These are some photoshop experiments with photographs that I captured. The first is of a BMX rider who is performing a trick. I set my digital SLR camera to action mode and captured him in mid air. I then went on and edited the image on photoshop by adjusting the levels and saturation of the image to give it an interesting colourful effect.

The next image is of the same rider performing another stunt off the wall. Again I put my digital SLR onto action mode so the image would come out clear so you could the full action. I then edited the image in photoshop by using the marquee tool to go around the edges of him and the bike, I then inversed the image to select the background and made it black and white so it kept the main subject of the image in colour and made the rest black and white.

The last is a kind of collage of my younger brother. I gathered images I had taken from various places and angles which I then put them all onto one canvas and used the pinhole effect to make them all kind of transparent and overlap onto each other. This created a interesting piece and I am thinking of using maybe all three effects in my final piece.
