Portfolio Development - Behance - My Images 2

Since my initial ideas for my final 10 images I have experimented with a few of my other ideas instead. I thought about my favourite genre being the architectural and thought how could I interpret that into my images and I also looked through some older images from a couple of years ago and thought I would be able to use those for some as well. After many hours worth of editing them I came up with these...

I asked a couple of my friends what their opinion was for this image and they turned to me and said we have told you before that we like this image. I laughed and said look again and its then that they realised I had replaces the end of the inside corridor with the steps leading to the tram line. I was impressed with how I had fooled them and I like this images because it makes you study it more. I just wish I had both images in colour but they were taken on an old black and white film camera and in black and white on a digital camera. 

This was the first image I tried this effect on. I was sat looking for images and came across these two in the same folder and thought they would look good together. It took a lot of practice and playing around with photoshop for me to get the correct blending mode and positions but i think it was well worth the 3 or so hours. I am very pleased with this image and think it is going to be one of my final 10 images. 

This image is a similar to the one above. The heads are metal sculptures I photographed on site at Hull University. They are fantastic and make excellent textured shots. I love this image as the head again looks like it is popping out of the image at you and the blending mode I used has almost given it a 3D effect too. I think again that this image will be one of my final 10.

This was a very experimental image. I just had a mad idea one day when I didn't have too much to do. I think there is still more work and techniques which need to be done to make it seem more realistic but for a start I was pleased with it. I think I could do with looking at some more online tutorials and see if I can improve it.



I was told this image looks like it have been edited to merge two or maybe three images together but it hasn't. This is the original image but it has been edited to bring out the green of the leaves and I have cleared up the reflection in the mirror as it was rather blurry to start with.


I have had a lot of fun making these and will be making more. I need to get out and take more but for now I think I have enough different ideas to get my final ten images for behance of my developed ideas.
