Editing in RAW

When shooting in RAW, which contains data which is minimally processed either from an image sensor of a digital camera. This format is unready for printing because they are not processed. In order to process the image, I double clicked on the RAW, unprocessed image in the location that the image was in. This then opened up camera RAW which allowed me to make manipulations, improvements and changes to many different things. 


Once I had finished making the changes that I wanted to the image, I had to save it. When i saved the image I changed the format to TIFF so that I could print the image and I saved it again but this time as a JPEG so that I could put it onto my blog.

Below is the edited versions of my photographs.

Stitching/Panorama

I created a stitched (photo merge) image by taking many photographs which overlap very slightly in order to produce a final panoramic image. I began by opening photoshop and going to the "File" menu and then "Automate" and then clicking on "Photomerge". By doing this, it opens up a tab which allows me to change what sort of photo merge I am going to produce and it also allows me to browse the files that I would like to use for the photo merge. I then browsed through my files to find the exact files that I wanted to use. Once I clicked open, it layered and merged the photos together into one final panoramic image. Once the final image was created I flattened the image by hovering over the "Layer" and then clicked on "Flatten Image" which brought all the layer into one. Below are my 2 final panoramic images that I created. The 2 final images above are underexposed so when I create a panoram...

Hyper-Lapse

I created my hyper-lapse by placing my camera carefully on top of a tripod. I then positioned the tripod which had my camera on the edge of a pavement so that my main subject was positioned centrally in the frame. Next, I took a shot of the subject standing still on the curb of the pavement and every time I took a shot, I tracked backward whilst the subject moved forwards. I created the final video (hyper-lapse) by putting all the photos that I took into one folder. I then opened Photoshop. Once Photoshop was opened, I went to into the "File" menu and then clicked on "Open".   Once I had done that, I Navigated to the folder where all the photos were. I selected the first photo that I took.  Once the Photo has opened in photoshop, I went to the "Dialogue Box" and then clicked on "Image Sequence" By clicking "Open", it will import the photos into a time-lapse video fi...

Kaleidoscope

In order to do the kaleidoscope effect in photoshop, I needed to use a JPEG file because a RAW file is too large and it would take a longtime to process and carry out the actions that I want to perform on the file. Once the JPEG file is opened in photoshop, I cropped the image, getting rid of anything that I did not want to have in the final image. Then I double clicked on the background layer in the layers palette. I then expanded the size of the canvas so that I could fit the kaleidoscope within the canvas. I achieved this by clicking on 'Image' and then 'Canvas Size'. I then made the anchor so that it was top left of the canvas and I changed the units to percent and then I also set the width and height to 200%. I then needed to copy and flip the top left layer so that it covers the remains empty areas of the canvas. I did this by selecting the top layer and then pressing 'cmd' and 'ctrl'-'J'. this copies the top...
