Flexible Edits

"Home" 9/17/2010 7:45 am. Cokeville WY. f-stop: 4.0 shutter: 1/4000 sec. Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi.

To edit this image I used an Adjustment Layer. I really like how it brings out the fall colors of the trees in the background. Adjustment layers are a great way to edit without damaging the original pixels. I kept the adjustment layer on the background and the foreground (the sign) is the same as in the original photo. :)

Original Photo 9/17/2010 7:42 am. Cokeville WY. f-stop: f/10 shutter: 1/60 sec Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi

First I adjusted the contrast before any other edits. Then I added a smart filter, and used the "crystalize" filter. I lowered the opacity, and hid the affect on the leaves, branch and berry that appear closest. :)

    I like how you were able to bring the exposure back with the cokeville picuture. I also like what your smart filter did to the colors in your picture.
