I took a photo of Salford Quays landscape. I thought that thePhoto looked very dull as it was taken on a gloomy day, so there was no natural light to give key detail to the picture.

I wanted the image to be darker as the photograph looked Grainy and shadowed a lot of the detail. I used a curve effect That added a shadow over the image and made the sky and water more vibrant. This also added a cloudy effect to the skyto make it seem early morning.

I liked the idea of making the photo early morning andseeming like it was summer. So I chose a orange warm glowing photo filter and overlayed it onto the original photograph. I was happy with the effect because the skychanged to orange but kept the building to their original colour.

To give the realistic illusion that the photograph is earlymorning. So I used the lens flare effect and switch it to Movie prime and positioned it in the middle of sky. This gave the illusion that it was sunny on the day I took on the photo.

The photo I chose did not need a lot of editing as it already had depth of field applied when the original was taken. I chose to edit this photograph because I felt like it need one Little thing to make the photo complete.

For the effect that I used, I went to the filter page on Photoshop. I used the Black and White effect. As I thought the colour of the grass was distracting To the main subject. This brought out better detail In the guitar

This is the original photograph of the bridge In Salford Quays, I thought to edit this picture as It is parallel and also like the first photo it is verydull and bland.

I thought to mess around with the lighting because the edges of the photo were too bright and I also wanted the main subject to be the building in the background through the bridges archway. So I used the Lighting effects tool and created a light in the centre of thephoto creating a light shadow around the edges of the Photograph.

I still thought there was not enough focus on the centre of the bridge. So I added a level to make the Shadow on the outside darker. This gave the building a better and brighter bronze reflect, which I liked because It looked like the light source of the photo.

As another option I changed the whole photo toBlack and white because it worked well with the black Shadow but went against it because the other looked. Appealed to me more.
