To start with I am going to edit a photo so that it is good to have a filter. There is no point placing a filter over a badly composed photo, or a photo where the colour isn't good. To start with I am going to take my photo and I am going to crop it improving the composition. First of all I cropped the front of the crowd off so that there were no gaps in the crowd. I adjusted the levels so that the sky was lighter and the crowd was slightly darker. After I did this i started adding filters. My original is below.
Level changes.
After crop and levels.
Cooling Filter - This makes the blues get more vibrant and darker.
Yellow 30% - I cant notice much change.
Green 30% - more green tones.
Magenta 70% - most of the photo has got a tinge of magenta.
Sepia 100% - this is my favourite. I like how it looks differnt with the sky being in dark and the people still in colour.
I like how the filters change the images sometimes subtly and others not so. I played with the intensity of the filter. Doing this has shown me how much more useful photo shop is and how it can be used practically not just for abstract things like photo grams.
