triptych










I edited these three photos to give them a vintage feel. I gave these pictures a softer feel by lowering the saturation and adding a photo filter to them.


diptych







I added a high contrast filter and edited these two pictures which go together to make them have a higher contrast in order for the colors to pop.

pictorialism



for this image, i used filters and grain to create the look that i did on the image. i also put a vignette on the image to give it more character.

vintage color



for this image, my goal was to make the picture look vintage. i used hue and saturation to kind of wash out some of the colors as well as give it more of a yellow undertone. i also used photo filters to give it the vintage look.

high contrast



for this image, i used curves as well as hue and saturation to make all the colors really pop. in this image, i chose to make it have a very high contrast and make the brights and darks really stand out against eachother.
