Photoshopping Pt. 2

Last week we had our first photoshop session as part of our New Media module. This week was our final afternoon of it, good fun all round! This is my second final image - I think! I'm always tempted to keep messing with them, but we just have so much other stuff to do that I don't have time!

It's a collage of photographs taken at the Giant's Causeway, at a gig and of loads of graffiti and some Gaudi glass in Barcelona.

Photoshopping

This afternoon as part of our series of lectures and workshops in New Media we created few photoshop images. Here's the first of mine, I need to finalise another one next week. It's a combination of a photograph of my eye and a photograph that I took on the Conor Pass. I was initially drawn to the photo because of the really strong dark triangle in the foreground of the image. It happened accidentally but made the composition of the photograph stronger and more interesting. Trying to hold myself back from too many miscellaneous Photoshop effects and filters as I was doing it! I'd forgotten how much fun photoshop is. It was really nice hearing other people's reactions to it as well when they hadn't been exposed to it before, they were all blown away by what you can do.
