#edditing

For the editing part of my final project, my chosen editor is a mixture of Lightroom and Photoshop RAW the reason why is that it will allow me to have more control over what happens to the image when editing, my plan of action is to not dramatically change much about each image but to enhance what is already in the frame, focusing of sharpness, colour balance and contrast each thing crucial for a visual appealing photo that is going up on a wall.

The first step is sharpening and lens correction takes out any warping effect the lens I used had on the image making for a flatter and even exposed image as the most lens will darken the edged the edges slightly. Lens correction helps with, this is too create contrast between the detail within the images so each spec of dust and debris is clear and sharp.

My goal was to be simple and clean so when touching up the exposure I mainly focused on adding contrast to the image slowly this creates and nice depth to the image as well as making any colour within the frame pop, by strengthening the blacks and shadows while making sure the whites were not overexposed to the point of complete detail loss unless I was looking into a light which is unavoidable.

Before exporting and saving the images we need to crop, after consideration, I felt like it was best for a 1x1 crop (square) as I could isolate the parts of the images that were of the most interest to me and when it comes to exporting the sizes will all be the same. Here you can see the images cropped and edited.

My chosen export file is TIFF at 300DPI this will make sure that next to no detail is lost and saved at a higher quality, I will then later lower the DPI to 240 before printing which is the option point for good prints, this will be done in photoshop on the day of printing.
