I was browsing through One Eyeland's website of photography, and I came across a few photos that sparked my interest. Being really experimental with photoshop, this inspired me and gave me new ideas for photos. A great example is the fourth photo down, I like changing people in photos into abstract pieces of art and this specific photograph portrays this idea completely. This piece encouraged me the most because as soon as I saw this picture I knew how I would be able to work on this in photoshop. By using a great amount of shadow while taking the picture, I could easily erase the body with the clone stamp tool and healing brush tool. I could also take the picture of the model in the studio, as well as a simple photo of the background I would be using. By doing this method, I would select certain parts of the two photos and put them together which would cover the body and only reveal the head of the model leaning on the hand and showing the arm. Then after that is done I change the opacity of certain layers and blend the edges of the face so it looks as clear as the example above. Once I get the model I want to use for this photograph together and am completely finished with this project I will be posting my version on our blog! So stay tuned for other human's blog posts from the Samohi Photography class!
