This is my original picture.























This picture, i like because she is not looking at the camera, but it is still interesting for the viewer to see. To edit this picture, I decided to keep the shadows in each corner of the image, but from there I made it slightly pink so it could have more of an interest to it. I liked the fact the dancer is holding one leg so both ballet shoes can be seen. This relates back to my theme well.

This is the original picture.

This picture represents the theme of ballet because I think that it shows the tutu at the back. I think that this is a good picture because it shows the idea of symmetry, this makes the picture nicer to look at and almost seem calmer. To edit this, i did minor editing. All i did was enhance the brightness and contrast. I think that this a good picture overall and represents the theme well.

This is the original picture. 

This is the first filter.

    

This is when I had made the first filter brighter.

This is the first filter I added to the picture, the first time I decided it was too dark so i then increased the brightness and saw the effect that this had on the filter. After looking at the picture, I felt that the filter was too harsh and did not bring out the good side to the image. I think it made the wrong impression onto the image.

I then added this filter, it called 'artist brush' and I used this because although its a subtle change it still makes the image slightly darker and makes it seem as if the tutu is darker than it is, this makes the tutu stand out in the photo. 

I took this picture because I felt that because she is looking straight into the camera, it makes it more personal and seems as if she is looking straight into the camera. Also, because she is on pointe and wearing a tutu it portrays the theme of ballet.

Using a filter
















This is the image, without a filter.

 

For this picture, I felt that without a filter it was less interesting. I used the filter 'accented edges' as I saw that having an outline on the picture created a better look to it. I think that it makes the picture almost seem as if it has been placed onto the background. I think that having an outline on the main focus (the person) makes a better, more interesting effect to the image. I think that this effect makes the colours of the shoes and tights stick out and adds a shine to the shoes, this makes them look better. I think that this picture is nice for the viewer to see and also more interesting.

This is the image, before I decided to edit it.
















When I was looking at this picture, I thought that the shoes in the photo needed to stick out more as in the first photo the colours were only slightly different so the shoes were showing but i found that they needed to be brighter or more noticeable. To do this I cut the background out and made it black and white so not only did the shoes stick out more, the picture also portrayed a different theme. It made the picture seem as if it was taken more professionally or in a more professional place. I think that this benefits the picture. I then cut the shoes out and made these brighter so the colours stuck out more. I also think that having this picture very simple makes it calmer for the eye and a nicer photo to look at.

This is the image, prior to editing.

This is the image once I have edited it. When I was editing this picture, I made it black and white. I did this because i felt that it brought out the main elements of the picture. It brings out the tutu, making it a darker, more defined colour. Also, i think that it brings out the models face. I also made the image brighter when I was editing because once it was turned black and white, I found that it was too dark. When I was taking the picture, I made sure that the model was looking straight into the camera, because I feel that it makes it more personal. I think this image is good because it relates back to my theme well.

Before Editing.











After Editing.









To edit this image, I enhanced the contrast to make the colours in the image show up more. Also I made the brightness increase to again, magnify the colours and make the image more interesting. I feel that this image is interesting as the dancer is in a not so typical pose, so it enables the viewer to think more into the image. The idea that the dancer is not looking at the camera or on pointe suggests she may be warming up for a dance show or exam. This is good beccause it shows a range of sides to Ballet.

This picture I feel didn't need any editing because I think that if the image was over edited it would not look as effective. I chose to use this image because I felt that it conveyed the theme of Ballet correctly. I think that this picture is what is thought as a 'typical' ballet pose, so I think that including it in my Ballet theme has made my theme more around the topic of Ballet. I purposely cut out the arm because I felt that is i did include the arm into the picture, the picture may have been too long.
