I'm Gonna Master Photoshop


Okay so I have been out of the web graphic design loop for a couple of weeks, and it has definitely showed in my work. I wanted to work on a picture to try to get some practice in. I will post them and will tell you the changes at the end . See if you can find my changes. : )


New





Original























Okay so what I did was  fixed the bags underneath my boyfriends eyes by using the spot healing tool brush, as well as the bumps on my face. I used the spot healing to as well to fix his tooth. I used the auto tone to give the picture some life. I tried to use the clipping mask but, I didn't do very well. So I ended up using the magnetic marquee tool to cut the background out. I realize it's still a bit rough around the edges but its a learning process right? : ) I wasn't sure how to restore the color under his eyes. If anyone knows please let me know. Also, I used the warp tool to refine the edges where I put the background picture. I am determine to master photo shop, there's just so much to learn in 8 weeks that you miss some things.
