Photoshop is a popular name for image editing software. Its full name is Adobe Photoshop and it is developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated. Works on Apple Macintosh and Windows operating systems. Photoshop allows you to modify scanned images, especially photos. It is also used to create and edit images (e.g. logos) and graphics. Shape, light, color and background are some of the aspects that this tool allows you to edit. The program has a very large image editing capabilities. We can also install various add-ons for this program.

Not It is possible to learn this program right away. On Youtube we find a lot of tips for beginners. A guide on how to get started with this program.

  1. Good that you posted this. However, you need to post screenshots of you trying out the tutorial and reflect on how did you find the experience. What will you takeaway from it and use in your own project? Remember you need to test tools on Photoshop, that you may not have tried before, as the point of the project is to gain new skills and develop any existing ones.

Architecture photography

A week ago we were taking pictures of architecture in the city of Leicester. We went for a 2 hour walk around the city. Below I put a contact sheet and a selection of four photos. All photos were taken with Nikon Z6 camera with Sigma Art 35 mm 1.4 lens. I like the first photo because of the interesting building painted in stripes. I also like the reflection of the light from the skyscraper that is behind in the background.     35mm  F/10  1/200 s ISO 100 For the next picture I liked the inscription on the street, I took this picture vertically. The street was empty                               35mm  F/8 1/200 s ISO 100 The next photo shows the facade of the building, which is made of interesting metal window sills.      35mm  F/8  1/50 s  ISO 100 I liked the last photo I chose not only because of the architecture but also because of the light coming from between the buildings.     35mm  F/8  1/160 s ISO 100  

Ideas Generation

My project stems from my frustration. I often cycle around Leicester City. I love nature and I love being outdoors. What scares me is a lot of rubbish lying on the streets. I often see young people throwing garbage on the street. This is a common phenomenon in the UK. I do not like this. Rubbish in Leciester is everywhere. There are even plastic bottles floating in the canal. This problem needs to be shown and people must be made aware of the great evil they are doing. I have visited many countries in my life. I have a comparison to, for example, Switzerland. It is one of the most beautiful and clean countries in the world. Being there one feels at peace and is happy. My idea is to create a virtual dramatic photo story. Where the main character dies, overwhelmed by the fact that there is garbage everywhere. The title of my project is "A sad story about littering" Pexels.com
