edittng photo in photoshop

This is my original photo that was taken of me jumping. I think the composition is good because I’m in the center of the shot. It ‘s clear to see I’m the subject of the photo and there isn’t any part of me leaning out of shot. But this photo looks over exposed and it’s hard to look at. I appear faint and have low color definition. It doesn’t seem realistic at all. It has a bright monotone and the sun shining has created a yellow hue.

This is my original photo that was taken of me jumping. I think the composition is good because I’m in the center of the shot. It ‘s clear to see I’m the subject of the photo and there isn’t any part of me leaning out of shot. But this photo looks over exposed and it’s hard to look at. I appear faint and have low color definition. It doesn’t seem realistic at all. It has a bright monotone and the sun shining has created a yellow hue.

So I decided to alter the amount of light so it wouldn’t appear so monotone and I would bring the subject out more and background more so it looked more natural.

Now you can see the colors of the person’s cloths more. They are more easy to define and the same goes from the background. You are more aware that they are windows in the picture. The colors seem more saturated but it still seems a bit to bright. It is slightly off-putting and still doesn’t look real. So I decided to give more shadows so it would appear less bright and give it more realism. It would draw more attention to the person’s facial feature and make it seem more natural.

It looked better but I hadn’t gone far enough. I decided to give the picture a lower contrast but a higher level of brightness so it didn’t go to far one way. It didn’t look to dark or to bright. I think I got the balance right and looks much more realistic.

This is my photo. I think it looks much better than the original. It seems more realistic and easier to look at and more professional. It still looks a bit over exposed but that’s because it was a very sunny day when this photo was shot. I should have lowered the ISO or aperture. But in terms of editing I think I made it as professional as I could do.
