LO4: KTA 2: All Images Edited & Evidence of Change With Justifications for Technique Applied

NEW INDUSTRY

I deliberately used editing tools such as the vibrancy tool to make my 'new industry' images appear new and clean. I did this to emphasis my concept.

THE SHOWROOM CINEMA
















I have increased the gamma correction of the photograph to make the Showroom building look brighter and cleaner. I have also cropped the image to make it more symmetrical, thus it becomes more aesthetically pleasing. 

VINTAGE NECKLACES

I have adjusted the exposure (+0.4), offset (-0.02) and gamma correction (1) of this image to make the necklaces appear more vibrant and contrasting.

SWEETS STALL


















I have increased the contrast of this image to create a greater appearance of depth between the sweets.


VINTAGE CLOTHES


I have increased the vibrancy of this image by 100 to make the clothes look brighter. I did this to make the image more vibrant.

BOUTIQUE SIGN






I haven't actually edited this image because I couldn't think of a way to improve it. I really like the reflection of the neon sign on the glass and the red brick of the wall.

OLD INDUSTRY

I have edited all of my 'old industry' photographs to look older by making them took dirtier and more worn. I have done this to emphasise my concept and the contrast between the two sets of images.

HENDO'S













I increased the vibrancy of the image so that the bricks and the famous Hendo's sign look more orange and bright. I also cropped the image to make it more symmetrical in order to make the cyclist the central focal point. 

KELHAM ISLAND MUSEUM 



















I have increased the vibrancy of this image to make to metal appear more colourful and contrasting.

WILLIAMS FASTENERS
















I decreased the vibrancy of the tarpaulin on the roof behind the web to make it look less garish and distracting from the focal point. 

OLD INDUSTRIAL BUILDING 















I decreased the vibrancy of the image to make the building appear more dirty. I also cropped the image to make it more symmetrical.


STREET CORNER
























I haven't actually edited this image because I can't think of any way to improve it. I didn't adjust the vibrancy because I think it looks dull and dirty enough.
