Dundon-Texture



I cropped out both the person from one photo and the sign from another photo. Then I changed the levels to dim the sky and snow, but also to make the person and sign to stand out. Then I adjusted the brightness of the background and made it darker, but also made the sign and person brighter so they would stand out. Then I adjusted the size of the sign and person so they looked like they were apart of the photo the entry time.Then I adjusted the hue/saturation to make the background black and white and made the sign and person have more vibrant colors so they stood out even more. Then I didn’t feel like the person and sign didn’t stand out enough so I used the contrast and made the background even darker. Then I used a filter named render to make a circle around the person and sign brighter than everything else.

The compositional techniques I mainly used as leading lines. The texture I wanted to emphasize was the grainy, but yet smooth snow. Also the smooth material of the persons clothing. The concept of my picture is there is only one ending to everyone's life story and that is death. I feel like I was very successful in getting my concept across, but a change I would make is to the background I wouldn't have big portions of the sky darker than everything else.
