Editing/Photoshop

The majority of Ravilious’ work was taken in the 1970’s when the ability to edit images was not possible. I took my images in colour so i could have greater scope when editing, enhancing the individual colour balance. On an image, changing the colour balance can change the tone or atmosphere of a piece and intensify or lesson specific parts of an image. 

For example, when I first edited this image I experimented with the various colours to what I wanted the image to highlight as the centerpiece or fade into the landscape. Slighting adjusting the curve function also made the image have a rustic look to it. I edited the majority of my images with similar styles to give a coherent theme. By annotating my contact sheet I got a greater understanding on how I wanted my photos to look.
