Week #8 Photoshop Photo #1



On Thursday, we were on our way home from Barre from my daughters soccer game when all the severe storms were developing. In between Stowe and Morrisville the sky's became very scary looking and of course I whipped out my camera and started shooting. The photo on the left is the original photo I snapped while the photo on the right is the one I "fixed". The original photo did not depict the darkenss that was present with these storms, so I thought about where the light was coming from which was behind me and then altered the photo to represent that. First I cropped the photo to get rid of the mirror and the road. Then I made the photo darker and made it a little lighter in the top left corner to depict where the light was coming from. I love the new "fixed" photo. I think it is very pretty.

  1. It is definitely a more ominous effect and shows the threat of the storm more clearly, like you were looking for. Nice!
