shadows and silhouettes

In these images I adjusted the contrast and exposure to enhance the shadows made by the objects. I have also used the crop tool to ensure the subject is the main focus. This changes the feel of the photography because it draws more attention to the shadow and silhouettes

I wanted to see what this photo (created by putting old glass in front of a light) would look like if it was warmer-toned. So to do this, I increased the saturation slightly and changed the hue for a more yellow effect. This made the image look more rustic but also made the slightly brighter-coloured pencil stand out. After this, I heightened the black tones to make the main shadow and the glass effect more prominent.

Here, I needed to intensify the pathway of light and the shadow from the berry as a consequence. To do this, I first of all increased the contrast slightly then adjusted the grey and black tones to make the shadows deeper. I also decreased the brightness slightly to rid of any 'glary' white tones. All of this really defined the path of light going through the image and made the mood less bright

In this photo I wanted to emphasize the spiky shadows created by the plant so I used black and white and increased the contrast. This makes the shadows bolder.

In these 3 photos I have emphasized the light and dark areas by making the images monochrome and increasing the contrast. This has added definition to the shadows.

To refine these photos I have cropped to make a balanced composition. I have also increased the contrast and saturation of colour, making the lighting more dramatic

This image was cropped slightly, to make the viewer look more at they keys. the contrast was increased and the brightness decreased, to make the stalks of the keys more visible, acting as leading lines towards the keys, and back towards the rest of the typewriter.

To refine these 2 photos I have cropped to make a more balanced composition. To show off the light and dark I have made them black and white and then increased the contrast.
