Digital Photo - Dalila BDS

                                                     On the left you see the focus on the background and on the right the focus is on the plant in the foreground. Now on the left you can see the beautiful details of the painting and you can focus on everything that is happening beyond the plant, While on the right the focus goes to the plant and its out sticking leaves. The background is busy so making it blurry takes away all the attention to the thing in the foreground. Same thing for the foreground. If you make that blurry all the attention goes to the sharp details of the background. I think this change makes the subject of each photo more vivid and more sticking out. However, to me it did not really change the mood in any way.

Ansel Adams was born in San Francisco in 1902 as an only child. At the age of 4 he survived the aftershock of the great earthquake and fire from 1906. When he was born his parent were pretty old, his mother was nearly forty. His mom got upset at her husband because their family fortune collapsed in 1907 and he couldn't restore it.

Int his year he capture "monolith" , his first fully visualized photograph. Even though as a recognized artist, he couldn't take care of his finances....

Than I adjusted the brightness by making the photo a little darker so the sun wasn't too bright. After that I also adjusted the saturation so the color of the grass and ground would pop a little bit. before after I didn't really do much with this picture because I thought the lightning and the photo itself looked pretty good. The only thing I did was crop it a little and made it a little darker by adjusting the br...

To make this edit I used the tool on the left of the Photoshop program called ''spot healing brush tool''. (2 buttons under the crop tool) I zoomed in on the photo to see what exactly on her skin needed to go and made my circle smaller with the brackets. I gently brushed away the zit she had and that spot filled up with the skin on the background.
