Photoshop Examples

During the Photoshop unit I learned how to spot color a photo. To do this, I desaturated the picture so it would be all black and white. Then I added a new layer and made it slightly transparent so when I painted in the colors, it didn't completely cover up the original photo. Here, I chose to color in his bright pants, the grass, and the flag.

Now only some colors are highlighted.
In the Photoshop unit I also learned how to replace a face and put my face in for someone else's. I decided I wanted to be on Mt. Rushmore so I put my face in where Abe Lincoln normally is. I put my face in a layer beneath the original picture and then just erased Abe's face so I would be there instead of him.


I am now looking out over South Dakota.
