I like when using Photoshop when you do something you like and it adds to the picture. The thing about these laser pictures I took a few weeks ago is that they were only green and using photoshop I could bring out the vibrancy and the colour in these images. When Photoshopping my pictures I often use black and white and contrast but this time I tried some different things because they are lasers.
This one I was one of the best ones I took, So I decided to use the solarized filter. I did not know what this would do so I just tried it too see how it worked, I was really pleased by the finished result. It reminded me of a Jackson pollock style painting, he would flick paint using a brush to create a splattering affect.
Another of the photographs I took of the laser was this one, again it was completely green so I decided that I would change the colour adding yellows, oranges and a bit of red. I used the quick selection tool trying on each area i wanted to change and used hue and saturation . I liked the end effect
This photograph I edited ( the blue one) I decided that the background would be lighter and the laser itself would be less bright, I also changed the color to blue and I really like the affect it looks like marble. I used this again for the second photograph on which I decided to use ombre; the light blue gets darker as it goes like a gradient but instead it had a landscape look, I thought this as the sky looked blue over mountains. The laser looked the smoke moving in directions and how it fades.
Examples of marble and smoke, I did not take these photographs.
This was one image that did not work because of the lighting so I added to the brightness and also made the background darker to show this affect. I used a pink in the background because it complimented the laser image.
I am still getting used to using Photoshop, but I enjoy trying something new with it.
