Easy Glow

I think i like this photo a lot more when I didn't' have the easy glow effect on it. I think that by adding the effect blurred out the picture more and because the picture doesn't have really any color it made anything that was sharpened blurry.
I chose to use one of my attempts at over exposure. I used the the easy glow effect to make a better emphasis on the light instead of what's going on around the light. I think I enjoy the photo a lot more when i used the easy glow because it made the colors more vibrant.




Blur Overlay

I used the blur overlay on this photo to also make it more vibrant. I think i accomplished that beacuse the blackberry and the keys are a lot more visible and popping out.


This is a photo that i took during our alphabet assignment. I used the blur overlay to emphasize the color on the chalk and I think it also made the picture look all together better. Before I added the filter the chalk was not very vibrant and now it is.




Filtering the background

I chose to edit this picture and to filter the background to make a greater emphasis on my hand. I had already used the macro setting when I took the photo so I went the extra mile to make my hand stand out. I'm satisfied with this photo I just would like to now learn how to sharpen my the object up close.
This is a picture of my friend Jake. I had him pose in front of the window so that I could make him seem as though he is glowing once I added in the background filter. I like this photo because I made sure to emphasize him and try to blur out most of the background. I created emotion by making the subject darker and the background lighter.




Neon Glow

This is a picture of my friend Stacey's eye. I decided to take it outside because i wanted to get the best lighting that I could. The neon glow effect really accented her freckles and also made the picture look more intense.

I chose to use this photo for the neon glow effect because I thought it would give the picture the extra edge and be able to express emotion better. I used the color yellow to accent my skin tone and the blue in my eyes. The only thing I wish I wouldn't have done was editing it before adding on the filter.
