This is where I will be posting my Course work, maybe not quite as riveting as what is contained elsewhere on my blog, but it's the main reason I'm here.
So what's your excuse?
1. Practice Image
My first attempt at Photoshop
The original pic was much lighter. I have darkened it and altered the hue/saturation to make the energy more otherworldly. As a last touch, the bottom pic has had a liquid filter used on the background, and a subtle wave effect used on her hands.
The Good, The Bad and the Ugly
With these pics I have used filters. the first is the original pic, the second had a mosaic filter (i think) applied to it, and the last had a neon filter applied to it.

I have pasted myself into the original background picture, with the pictures taken of myself
in a few different poses.

10. Mailbox Photos and Create your own filter
Three photos of a mailbox. I have created my own filter by using a combination of the unsharp mask, glowing edge and film grain filters to produce this interesting effect.
