I am working on a project for 2D design using photography, making the ordinary extrordinary with photography. I have not used Photoshop for more than "camera raw" to improve the look of my photos although it has sat on my laptop for sometime. While snapping over 450 photos (and only having a handful of usable shots) I thought about our photography lecture and how these artists expressed their view of the world through a camera lens. As I began playing with Photoshop however, I found that that view can be enhanced, skewed, or even fabricated.
I took a picture of my kids at Keaton Beach. It was a beautiful evening, perfect weather, but look what I was able to do with Photoshop! I took a benign event and made it dramatic! I have found this to be another tool in my arsenal for making beautiful art, real or fictional!
