Hetfeld-Texture

Hetfeld



1. Erased everything from each picture. 2. Selected what I wanted with the quick selection tool from each of the two pictures. 3. Erased the access from Jessica's picture and part of the bird. 4. Moved everything to the background. 5. Used the clone stamp to get the picture of me to look like some parts in areas it needed it. 6. Shrinked everything down in size. 7. Changed the brightness of the branch. 8. Smudged the bottom of the stick that the bird was on to make it look shadowy. 9. Changed the level of the bird to make it go with everything else. 10. Moved everything around to see what looked better one last time.

The compositional techniques I used in the photograph was fill the frame, and leading lines. It was a picture of the gazebo in the background and it also has some leading lines in it too.

The texture I tried to emphasize was the bird, it was to light and it didn’t really go with the picture. Also in Jessica's hair there was a little bit missing so I tried blending it in and making it stick out like hair. The principles and elements I used was color, space, value, and contrast. I feel that the photograph used these four things because it has a lot of color, has darks and lights, and it even used up a lot of space I feel I was pretty successful with this project. If I was to change anything I would change the pictures I used because I really don’t like the ones I used except for my background.
