Week 10

This first image I used the cloning, airbrush, and healing tools. I used the cloning and healing tools to eliminate the red eye. I then used all three to turn the background to solid black. After all of that, I used the text tool to add a copyright directly in the image in the lower right. After adding the text where and how I wanted it, I merged the layers into one.

































The second image I used the airbrush tool to match the color of the grass and fill in the overexposed area. After I had filled it in with the airbrush, I went over spots with the clone tool to make it more realistic. I followed the same process as with the first one to add the copyright in the lower right hand corner.


































For both of these images I purposely matched the copyright color to a color from the image and made it small. This was to disrupt the image the smallest amount possible while still embedding a fairly permanent copyright onto the image.

  1. The copyright is subtle, maybe a bit too subtle? I can't even see it in the doggy photo. I guess it depends on your intention for having it there. Nice job on these tools this week, Beth, you obviously have had much practice with them previously as your work is very professionally done.

  2. Beth, nice work! I really like how you added more grass to the second photo. It made it more realistic, and eye pleasing.

    I am assuming that you watermark all of your works on a regular basis?
