Texture

1. Copy and paste the folder "color and texture" located in  (Desktop/Malik/2015-2016/Digital Photo/color and texture) into your digital photo folder on your desktop
2. Open each photo in photoshop (watch the demo)
3. Following the demo I will present in class TAKE NOTES; you will edit in the following:

Hue Saturation

Color Balance

Duo Tone

Grain

Blur

You will hand in one for each, not combined techniques (two or three into one photo) -- therefore, 5 images edited. We will begin with a tour of the menus in photoshop and move to editing the image. NOTE: you may use the same photo for different options, you choose the best photos for each option, as their is a methodology as to which will work best for each option.
