photoshop [experiment]

in this image, i wanted to increase the contrast and make the shadows dramatic. i used the burn tool to get this effect. i like the fact that it makes the colors themselves darker, not just adding black or grey.



i flattened the colors to get a more cartoon-like feel. i used the brush tool with the darker color setting. this one took the most time out of the three because i had to color over each section.


for the last image, i used the polygonal lasso tool to highlight the couch, rug, floor and ceiling. i then used the hue/saturation tool to change the colors from the originals. the tutorial we had in photoshop was extremely helpful to begin to learn the effects we can create in our pictures.
