Infrared Photography Pictures

Self-Portrait Project

Self-Portrait Project.

This is my self-portrait project.

The 1^st picture in this project is is of me. But since I don’t like my picture being taken, I didn’t want to include my face in it. However I didn’t want the picture to be boring. I love boots so thats what i thought i would take the picture of.  To edit this photo I simply raised the brightness and contrast a little. I then edited the shadows and highlights.

The 2^nd picture in my project is another picture of me. This wasn’t one I intended on using. It was simple taken for fun. But then I realized I really liked the picture and that it actually did represent me. I LOVE Barbour Jackets, and if you know me, then you know that I love them. So tis picture fitted in well with my project.  I edited this photo by increasing the brightness and contrast. I then edited the hue and saturation. I then used the Gradient Tool again to select what I wanted in focus. Then blurred out the rest.

The 3^rd picture in my project is also me. This one was for fun too, but also represented that I don’t really like having my picture taken. I didn’t do much to edit this picture. I just raised the brightness and contrast. I then raised the saturation and lowered the darkness a tiny bit.

The 4^th picture in my project is a picture of my shoes and cheetah print leggings. This represents me because I am obsessed with cheetah print. I some how made this picture look like a drawing.  Firstly I clicked on desaturation, and then I went into shadows and highlights, in there I raised the amount of shadow right up as well as the tonal width. I then changed the amount of highlights to 21%a and tonal width to 100%. Then I went to the adjustments and changed the colour correction to +52 and the midtone contrast to +62.

The 5^th picture in this project is a picture of my watch. I never go anywhere without this watch so that’s why it represents me. It was also the last thing I brought at home in England before I left, so it’s special to me. Firstly to edit this picture I raised the brightness and contrast. I then used the Brush Tool to change the colour of my hand to make it not so pale.
