For this shoot, I walked around Hartlepool to Seaton in order to capture a variety of images that would be suitable for what I was planning to do. I wanted to work on enhancing my images in Photoshop for this shoot, and I had a set plan for what I wanted to photograph. The images I collected were perfect for the task, and the variety resulted in me having more freedom when collaging my images on the Computer.It was quite a neutral day for this shoot, which worked in my favour, as it gave my images a slightly edgy, but glowing effect. And, the sky especially was perfect to capture, as there were many tones and chapes present formed by the clouds and the light from the sun.
Above, I have placed two of my images that I selected to manipulate together for my first attempt. The left image was taken of the Sky, and the right image is of a Gate which is at the bottom of my street. The gaps in the Gate are what inspired me to photograph it, as I felt it could potentially look very interesting if I anipulate another image into it to fill the gaps. First of all, I selected my images, I then cut out the gaps in the Gate using the Magnetic Lasso tool. Once all of the gaps were cut out, I added my Sky image behind it, which filled the gaps I had just made, and overall looked quite effective.
