Photo Editing

I edited two photos that I took, this was with the access of my Macbook, this has a software called Iphoto, which allows you to edit photos and add effects. In my one photo I used edge blur and made the colour 'sepia' this makes it look authentic and give it a edge, which makes it different to the other pictures, which makes it unique thus appealing to my readers. I also put the picture of the band in black and white. This is because their name being Moonbase - The moon is a white form of colour, so I thought the link between them and the moon would be good. I believe adding effects to images is a good idea. It helps create the picture to be different, and gives it an edge. Also some magazines which include models in their pictures, they use photoshop to add thins such as different skin colour's or erasing marks or spots that the model might not want to be seen. This makes the model look immaculate, which reflects the magazines
