Good morning Computers 8! For today's photo edit, please choose a picture of a brightly coloured flower from Google image search. Daisies work well for this effect, as there are some great photos out there of high quality close-up images of vibrant daisies. You are welcome to choose a different flower of course, but please choose an artistic photo rather than just a snapshot of a garden. Using either selective colouring or selective boost, paint back on the most vibrant colours (likely the petals, and depending on the composition of the photo, maybe some green as well). You are welcome to play around with some of the other effects as well until you arrive at a finished product that you are happy with. Be creative with your choices, and remember that you can increase the saturation of colour on the original photo before you change it to black and white so that the vibrance of the colours is more intense against the black and white. Try playing with colour saturation and/or the "Boost," "Orton-ish," or "Lomo-ish" effects. You can also alter the percentage/fade of the effect by using the sliding bars if it's too strong (or not strong enough).
****** MAKE SURE YOU SAVE YOUR WORK AS A JPG FILE!!!! You will hand in the photos to my assignments folder when you are finished, so please label it with your name as well (last name first, as always!). Before you hand in your photo, please make sure you check to see that it has the image icon rather than the white piece of paper icon - if it's the white paper icon it is a file that won't be readable on my computer. Double check before you hand in, please!
Happy editing!
